Answer:
[tex]n = 8[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]3n - 2(n + 8) = - 8[/tex]
[tex]3n - 2n - 16 = - 8[/tex]
[tex]n - 16 = - 8[/tex]
[tex]n = - 8 + 16[/tex]

Answer:
n=8
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
3n−2(n+8)=−8
3n+(−2)(n)+(−2)(8)=−8(Distribute)
3n+−2n+−16=−8
(3n+−2n)+(−16)=−8(Combine Like Terms)
n+−16=−8
n−16=−8
Step 2: Add 16 to both sides.
n−16+16=−8+16
n=8
