To solve the equation \( 3n + 9 + 4n = 2 \), we can follow these steps:

**Step 1**: Combine like terms to get \( 7n + 9 = 2 \).

**Step 2**: Use subtraction as the inverse operation to get \( 7n = -7 \).

**Step 3**: Divide both sides by 7 to get \( n = -1 \).

So, the steps in order are:
1. Combine like terms to get \( 7n + 9 = 2 \).
2. Use subtraction as the inverse operation to get \( 7n = -7 \).
3. Divide both sides by 7 to get \( n = -1 \).
