thats not even an option on my paper.

anonymous · Answer

So the problem is wrong

mertsj · Answer

$$\frac{-7+n}{22}\times22=-1\times22$$

anonymous · Answer

@smr_kml You're reading the question wrong. The question is as Mertsj has written it. The answer is correct.

mertsj · Answer

$$-7+n=-22$$

anonymous · Answer

The steps are as follows: Multiply both sides by 22, then add seven to both sides.

anonymous · Answer

$$-7+\frac{n}{22}=-1$$
n/22 = -1 +7
n/22 = 6
      n = 132

mertsj · Answer

$$-7+n+7=-22+7$$

mertsj · Answer

n=-15
