Is n = 2 a solution to the equation 4n - 3 = - 2n + 9. Show your work and explain your answer.

4n - 3=-2n+9

4 (2) - 3

8-3=5

-2 (2) + 9

-4+9=5

5=5

This means that the solution to this equation is 2.

5+-8x=29

Subtract 5 from both sides.

8x=24

Divide by 8.

x=3

This means that the solution to this equation is 3.
