8(4n + 13) = 6n Use distributive property so :8 (4n) = 32n and 8(13) = 104 32n + 104 = 6n Subtract 32n from each side and you will get: 104 = 26n then you divide each side by 26 and your answer will be: n = 4
first distribute: 8(4n)+8(13) 32n+104=6n -32n -32n 104=-26n /-26 /-26 -4=n 8(4(-4)+13)=6(-4) 8(-3)=-24 -24=-24
To solve the equation 8 ( 4 n + 13 ) = 6 n , distribute the 8 to get 32 n + 104 = 6 n . Rearranging this gives 26 n + 104 = 0 , leading to n = − 4 after isolating and solving for n . Thus, the final answer is n = − 4 .
