Answer:
N = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
rearrange the terms :
2-2n = 3n + 17
-2n + 2 = 3n + 17
subtract 2 from both sides
2n + 2 = 3n + 17
2n + 2 - 2 = 3n + 17 - 2
subtract the numbers
simplify
-2n = 3n + 5
subtract 3n from both sides.
divide both sides of the equation by the same term
-5n - 5
15 - 5
therefore it is N = -3
