All you have to do is follow PEMDAS (if you don't know what that is, search it up).


-2-5(4n-6)=-132

Distribute the 5 to everything in the parentheses.

-2-20n+30= -132

Combine like terms.

-20n+28 = -132

Subtract 28 from both sides.

-20n = -160

Divide by -20 on both sides.

n = 8

Use order of operations rules to evaluate all terms of -2-5(4n-6)=-132, and then solve for n:

Must multiply -5(4n-6) first: -20n + 30. Then we have -2 - 20n + 30 = -132.

Adding 2 to both sides, we get -20n + 30 = -130, or -20n = -160.

Solving for n, n = 160/20 = 8 = n
