Answer:

n = -13

Step-by-step explanation:

You were doing everything correct but one minor error

-13 - n = 0

you added 13 to both sides which is correct

-13 - n = 0

+13        +13

than you got, n = 13

but you forgot to bring diwn the negative sign with the n

-13 - n = 0

+13        +13

- n = 13 which is basically

-1n = 13

divided both sides by -1 to get n positive

-1n/-1 = 13/-1

Simplified, n = -13
