Answer:
n = 2.5 or n = (5/2)
Step-by-step explanation:
(2n+4) +6 = -9 + 4(2n+1)
first distribute the 4 to the (2n+1)
(2n+4) +6 = -9 + (8n+4)
then add 9 to both sides to cancel out the -9 on the right side
(2n+4) +15 = (8n+4)
next subtract (2n+4) from both sides to cancel out the (2n+4) on the left side combining like terms as you subtract
15 = 6n
then divide 15 by 6 to get your final answer
n = 2.5
or
n = (5/2)
