Full solution

Q. 40+2n=4n8(n+8) -40+2 n=4 n-8(n+8)
  1. Distribute and Simplify: Simplify the right side of the equation by distributing 8-8 into (n+8)(n + 8).40+2n=4n8n64-40 + 2n = 4n - 8n - 64
  2. Combine Like Terms: Combine like terms on the right side.\newline40+2n=4n64-40 + 2n = -4n - 64
  3. Add 4n4n to Both Sides: Add 4n4n to both sides to get all nn terms on one side.\newline40+2n+4n=4n+4n64-40 + 2n + 4n = -4n + 4n - 64\newline40+6n=64-40 + 6n = -64
  4. Add 4040 to Both Sides: Add 4040 to both sides to isolate the term with nn.\newline40+40+6n=64+40-40 + 40 + 6n = -64 + 40\newline6n=246n = -24
  5. Divide by 66: Divide both sides by 66 to solve for nn.6n6=246\frac{6n}{6} = \frac{-24}{6}n=4n = -4
