    n = 3

    Step-by-step explanation:

    -6n - 20 = - 2n + 4 (1-3n)

    First distribute the 4 (1-3n)

    -6n - 20 = - 2n + 4 - 12n

    Combine like terms on the right side

    -6n - 20 = - 14n + 4

    Get 'n' on one side by adding - 6n to both sides

    -20 = - 8n + 4

    Subtract 4 to both sides

    -24 = - 8n

    Divide - 8 to both sides

    3 = n
