Answer 1

@satellite73 could you possibly help me?

Answer 2

22/5 + 21n/4 = - (-9n/4 + 3/5) ---- distribute through the parenthesis
22/5 + 21n/4 = 9n/4 - 3/5 --- to get rid of fractions, multiply everything by the common denominator which is 20.

(20) 22/5 + (20) 21n/4 = (20) 9n/4 - (20) 3/5
88 + 105n = 45n - 12
105n - 45n = -12 - 88
60n = - 100
n = -100/60 which reduces to - 5/3
