Answer:
[tex]n=\frac{-44}{9}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]n-2=10n+42[/tex]
Solve the equation for n
To get n alone we combine like terms
Subtract 10n from both sides
[tex]n-2=10n+42[/tex]
[tex]n-10n-2=10n-10n+42[/tex]
[tex]-9n-2=+42[/tex]
Now add 2 on both sides
[tex]-9n=+42+2[/tex]
[tex]-9n=44[/tex]
Divide both sides by -9
[tex]n=\frac{-44}{9}[/tex]
