Answer 5

HELP ME PPOJA

Answer 6

the only thing new is the 10 but that means it's number 10

Answer 7

POOJA

Answer 8

No one will help me :(

Answer 9

ok start by distributing

Answer 10

ok so you have to subtract -2 on both sides?

Answer 11

Nope we multiply using the distributive property.
a(c+b) = ac*ab
So...
-2 * n =?
-4*-2=?

Answer 12

there's more to the process :P
Can you answer :
-2 * n =?
-4*-2=?

Answer 13

-6

Answer 14

wait N=-4

Answer 15

so both equations = -6

Answer 16

O_o
I am so confused.
–2(n – 4) = 6 *
* <---is the supposed to be there?

Answer 17

that sign is not there

Answer 18

there are parentheses

Answer 19

–2(n – 4) = 6 so just this?

Answer 20

yes

Answer 21

Don't distribute the -2.
Start by dividing both sides by -2.

Answer 22

oh ok
–2(n – 4) = 6
when we distribute we get
-2n+8
-2 * -4=8 (remeber that a negative times a negative is a positive )
-2+8=6
@mathstudent55 either way would work.

Answer 23

-2n+8=6
subtract 8 from both sides.
8-8=0
6-8=?

Answer 24

-2

Answer 25

good
-2n=-2
divide both sides by -2
-2/-2=1
so you have n
-2/-2=? (on the other side)

Answer 26

1

Answer 27

Good so n=?

Answer 28
