I don't wanna do this. Math. I'll post it below.

\[ \frac{ -7+n }{ 8 }=-3\] Find n. I also have 7 more. @563blackghost

563blackghost:

You have to work backwards to isolate the variable. First you need to cancel out the `divided by 8` so you do the opposite. What can you do to cancel out `divided by 8`?

QuestionCoveBot:

Times

QuestionCoveBot:

-3 x 8?

563blackghost:

Yes! which equals?

QuestionCoveBot:

-0.375

563blackghost:

well its `8 x 3` just with a negative...

QuestionCoveBot:

Oh. So -24?

563blackghost:

Yes! so you have \(\bf{-7 + n = -24}\) what do you think should be done next? i really apologize, i had a line at work

QuestionCoveBot:

\[-24-(-7)\]

QuestionCoveBot:

It's all good anyways. I can get it from here, thanks.

563blackghost:
