Solve n:
1. Use distributive property:
[tex]a(b+c)=ab+ac[/tex][tex]2n-12=n-3+2n[/tex]2. Combine like terms:
[tex]2n-12=3n-3[/tex]3. Substract 3n in both sides of the equation:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 2n-3n-12=3n-3n-3 \\ -n-12=-3 \end{gathered}[/tex]4. Add 12 in both sides of the equation
[tex]\begin{gathered} -n-12+12=-3+12 \\ -n=9 \end{gathered}[/tex]5. Multiply both sides of the equation by (-1):
[tex]\begin{gathered} (-1)(-n)=(-1)(9) \\ n=-9 \end{gathered}[/tex]Then, the valuye of n taht makes the equation true is -9
