To solve the equation, we can multiply both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction on the right side, which is 17/5.

So, we have:

-9 = (5/17) * n

Multiplying both sides by 17/5, we get:

(-9)*(17/5) = (5/17) * n * (17/5)

-153/5 = n

Therefore, the solution to the equation is n = -153/5.

11 – (2v + 3) = –2v – 8
11 – (2 v + 3) = –2 v – 8

5w + 8 – w = 6w – 2(w – 4)
5 w + 8 – w = 6 w – 2( w – 4)

7m – 2 = 8m + 4 – m
7 m – 2 = 8 m + 4 – m

8y + 9 = 8y – 3
