Solve for nn. Express your answer as an integer or integers or in simplest radical form.
-10+2n^2- -2
To solve for n, we start by simplifying the expression:
-10 + 2n^2 - (-2)
-10 + 2n^2 + 2
Combine like terms:
2n^2 - 8
Set the expression equal to zero:
2n^2 - 8 = 0
Add 8 to both sides:
2n^2 = 8
Divide by 2:
n^2 = 4
Taking the square root of both sides:
n = ±2
Therefore, n = 2 or n = -2.
