Solving Equations with Variables on Each Side.

2n - 31 = -9n + 24

+9n +9n

What is the next step in solving this equation? Select all that would continue solving to isolate the variable.

Divide 11 to both sides
Subtract 11 to both sides
Subtract 24 to both sides
Add 31 to both sides

Answer 1

Add 31 to both sides.

Since you brought the 9n over to the left side you have to get rid of other numbers that aren't n on that side

So you add the 31 to both side to remove it from the left
