    Answer: n = 8.4

    Step-by-step explanation:

    40 - 5n = - 2

    First, subtract 40 from each side of the equation

    -5n = - 42

    Then, divide each side by - 5

    n = 8.4

    The - 5 and - 42 cancel each other out when dividing, so n = 8.4 is positive.

    n=8.4

    Step-by-step explanation:

    To solve, we need to isolate the variable, n

    40 - 5n = -2

    Subtract 40 from both sides

    40-40-5n = - 2 - 40

    -5n = - 42

    Divide both sides by - 5

    -5n/-5=-42/-5

    n=42/5

    n=8.4
