Solve for n: 3(-3n + 4) +6n = -12

OpenStudy (nikolas):

You want to isolate the n to one side of the equation. Try distributing the 3 and then combining like terms.

i did that and now im at -5n+4=-12

OpenStudy (nikolas):

I don't think you did that correctly... your first step should be to multiply 3 by (-3n+4), giving -9n+12+6n=-12.
