(2n+3) how do you solve this stwp by step?

Question

How would you solve for this problem because I would do it one way but they want me to do it another.

Answer 1

Damerius, 

 

Can you tell us the way "they" want you to solve it and the way you want to do it? Then we can say whether your way would work, too, or why it won't. 

 

Also, are you trying to solve 2n + 3 = 0? Or is there more to the problem? We need to see the whole thing.

Answer 2

2n+3=0

2n=-3

2n/2=-3/2

N=-3/2 or -1 1/2
