Question

Solve for n

-19=-8+n

Answer 1

Answer:

8-18=n

-10=n

therefore

n=-10

Answer 2

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Answer:  $\textsf{n = -11}$

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Given:  $\textsf{-19 = -8 + n}$

Find:  $\textsf{Solve for n}$

Solution: In order to solve for n we need to add 8 to both sides which would cancel -8 on the right side and isolate n giving us the value of n.

Add 8 to both sides

• $\textsf{-19 + 8 = -8 + 8 + n}$

• $\textsf{-19 + 8 = n}$

• $\textsf{-11 = n}$

Therefore, the final answer would be that n is equal to -11.
