Answer:

B) n=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, distribute.

7(1+4n)-5=-38+8n

7+28n-5=-38+8n

Combine like terms.

2+28n=-38+8n

To make solving the equation easier, subtract 8n first, so there isn't a negative variable.

2+28n=-38+8n

  -8n           -8n

2+20n=-38

Subtract 2 on both sides.

2+20n=-38

-2          -2

20n=-40

Divide by 20 on both sides.

20n=-40

/20   /20

n=-2

Hope this helps!! Have a wonderful day :3
