Solve the equation type your answer in the box as positive or negative whole number (Examples: 2 -4 6 -8) n/-2 + 4 = 10

1 answer

To solve the equation \( \frac{n}{-2} + 4 = 10 \), follow these steps:

  1. Subtract 4 from both sides: \[ \frac{n}{-2} = 10 - 4 \] \[ \frac{n}{-2} = 6 \]

  2. Multiply both sides by -2 to solve for \( n \): \[ n = 6 \times -2 \] \[ n = -12 \]

Therefore, the solution is \(-12\).
