-36=6(2-8n)
-36=6(2-8n)
-36 = 12 - 48n
-48 = -48n
? = n
multipy the 6(2-8n)= -36 collect like terms and then solve for n
To solve this equation, we need to isolate the variable, "n".
Let's start by simplifying the equation by distributing the 6 to the terms inside the parentheses:
-36 = 6 * 2 - 6 * 8n
Simplifying further:
-36 = 12 - 48n
To isolate "n", we want to move the constant term (12) to the right side of the equation and the variable term (-48n) to the left side.
Let's start by moving the constant term (12) to the right side by adding 12 to both sides of the equation:
-36 + 12 = 12 - 48n + 12
Simplifying further:
-24 = -48n
To get the value of "n", we need to isolate the variable term (-48n). Since -48n is multiplied by -24, we can divide both sides of the equation by -48:
-24 / -48= -48n / -48
Simplifying further:
1/2 = n
So, the solution to the equation -36 = 6(2-8n) is n = 1/2.
