Let n = the required number, then:
\n" ); document.write( "4(n+2) = -n-7
\n" ); document.write( "4n+8 = -n-7 Add n to both sides.
\n" ); document.write( "5n+8 = -7 Subtract 8 from both sides.
\n" ); document.write( "5n = -15 Divide both sides by 5.
\n" ); document.write( "n = -3
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
