5n + 6 = -4
First, you know you need to solve for n, so you would get n by itself. First step is by subtracting the 6 from the left side to the right side of the equation. That will get 5n by itself first.

Next, you can conclude that two negatives added together equal a negative, shown below:

Now, to get n by itself, divide 5 into itself and the other side of the equation.

Next you can conclude that -10 divided by 5 equals -2. (negative divided by a positive will equal negative.)
