Answer:
n = 35
Step-by-step explanation:
n - 13 x -2 = -44
distribute:
(n x -2) - (13 x -2) = -44
-2n - (-26) = -44
two negatives in front of a number makes it a positive number
so rewrite -2n + 26 = -44
-2n = -44 -26
-2n = -70
n = [tex]\frac{-70}{-2}[/tex]
n = 35
calc check (35 - 13) x -2 = 22 x (-2) = -44
