Solve for n. 2n + 20 + 14n = -19 + 13n n = ____

Combine like terms: Combine like terms on the left side of the equation. 2n + 20 + 14n = -19 + 13n (2n + 14n) + 20 = -19 + 13n 16n + 20 = -19 + 13nSubtract to isolate n: Subtract 13n from both sides to get all the n terms on one side. 16n + 20 - 13n = -19 + 13n - 13n (16n - 13n) + 20 = -19 3n + 20 = -19Subtract to solve for n: Subtract 20 from both sides to isolate the term with n. 3n + 20 - 20 = -19 - 20 3n = -39Divide to find n: Divide both sides by 3 to solve for n. 3n / 3 = -39 / 3 n = -13

Q. Solve for

n

\newline

2n + 20 + 14n = -19 + 13n

\newline

n =

Combine like terms: Combine like terms on the left side of the equation. $\newline$ $2n + 20 + 14n = -19 + 13n$ $\newline$ $(2n + 14n) + 20 = -19 + 13n$ $\newline$ $16n + 20 = -19 + 13n$
Subtract to isolate $n$ : Subtract $13n$ from both sides to get all the $n$ terms on one side. $\newline$ $16n + 20 - 13n = -19 + 13n - 13n$ $\newline$ $(16n - 13n) + 20 = -19$ $\newline$ $3n + 20 = -19$
Subtract to solve for n: Subtract $20$ from both sides to isolate the term with $n$ . $\newline$ $3n + 20 - 20 = -19 - 20$ $\newline$ $3n = -39$
Divide to find $n$ : Divide both sides by $3$ to solve for $n$ . $\frac{3n}{3} = \frac{-39}{3}$ $n = -13$
