Solve for n -8-8-8n=-8n-16

$- 8 - 8 - 8 n = - 8 n - 16$

Step 1

Subtract $8$ from $- 8$ .

$- 16 - 8 n = - 8 n - 16$

Step 2

Move all terms containing $n$ to the left side of the equation.

Add $8 n$ to both sides of the equation.

$- 16 - 8 n + 8 n = - 16$

Combine the opposite terms in $- 16 - 8 n + 8 n$ .

Add $- 8 n$ and $8 n$ .

$- 16 + 0 = - 16$

Add $- 16$ and $0$ .

$- 16 = - 16$

Step 3

Since $- 16 = - 16$ , the equation will always be true for any value of $n$ .
