How would you solve - 4 (8+5n) = 8?

n = - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

we apply distributive property:

-4 (8+5n) = 8

-4*8 - 4*5n = 8

we have:

-32 - 20n = 8

we add 32 to both sides of the equation:

-32+32 - 20n = 8 + 32

we have:

-20n = 40

we divide by - 20 to both sides of the equation:

-20n/-20 = 40/-20

we have:

n = - 40/20

finally we have:

n = - 2
