    One solution:

    n = - 6

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Rearrange:

    Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation:

    2 * (n+5) - (-2) = 0

    Step by step solution:

    Step 1:

    Equation at the end of step 1:

    2 • (n + 5) - - 2 = 0

    Step 2:

    Pulling out like terms:

    2.1 Pull out 2

    Note that - 2 = (-1) • 2

    After pulling out, we are left with:

    2 • ((-1) * (n+5) + ((-1)))

    Step 3:

    Pulling out like terms:

    3.1 Pull out like factors:

    -n - 6 = - 1 • (n + 6)

    Equation at the end of step 3:

    -2 • (n + 6) = 0

    Step 4:

    Equations which are never true:

    4.1 Solve : - 2 = 0

    This equation has no solution.

    A a non-zero constant never equals zero.

    Solving a Single Variable Equation:

    4.2 Solve : n+6 = 0

    Subtract 6 from both sides of the equation:

    n = - 6

    One solution was found:

    n = - 6
