Ron's rule is very easy you see
so if you get this wrong you better retreat
If you get a negative sign in a question
your answer is negative
But if you get positive with another positive
your answer is positive
so don't be cruel about Ron's Rule because his right
now its time to take a rest and do what's right for you and I .
Chapter 2 : Combining like terms and the Distributive Property
Nick : Hello
Clair : Hello
Nick : do you know any algebra ?
Clair : yes i do, why do you need help on algebra ??
Nick : yes, the questions are so hard
Clair : yes i know, but it is easy if you know what your doing
Nick : yes'
Clair : okay lets get started, whats your algebra question?
Nick : what is n+3-5n+12 ?
Nick : well i think it's (Pause) 2-6n+15, am i right ?
Clair : well let me see uh , n+3-5n+12 , 3n -5n is -15n bring the +12 down then you get -15n +12 then your answer is -15n +12. You probably did 3n -5n is -15n but you changed it to a +15n and -6n add and gets you to +12.
Nick : yeah your right i got it wrong thanks for the correcttion (:
Clair : No problem, you got anymore questions i can help you on ?
Nick : yeah this is the last one, what is 2 + 4(3n+8) ?
Nick : i think its 12n + 10 , am i right ?
Clair : let me check uh, 2 + 4 is 6 then (3n+8) is +24n so its 6 +24 then your answer is 6 +24
Nick : thank you, thank you very much !
Clair : You are welcome, so you got anymore questions i can answer ?
Nick : Nope
Clair : okay, by the way im Clair
Nick : oh hi im Nick
Nick : well see you around (bye)
Clair : Okay bye (bye)
Nick : bye (bye)

Rule for Multiplying: (Free Verse)
If you Multiply a Odd amount of Integers,
makes a negative product.
Multiply a even amount of Integers it will make a....
Positive Integer?!
'Is this true!'
'Does it work?'
Yes it does,
So do not doubt it,
Do not mock it,
But you may use it,
Unless of course you want to fail.

Subtracting Integers: (Picture Poem)
One thing,
You must,
Know about,
Subtracting,
Integers, is that you do not subtract integers you you add its opposite. Just change the minus into
Integers, is that you do not subtract integers you you add its opposite. Just change the minus into
a plus,
and change,

Miss S.: Hello, Mr. Stubborn. What a fine day it is. What are you working on?
Mr S.: Hello, Miss. Sunshine. I am working on this Algebra question. I have to simplify it.
Miss S.: What the question?
Mr S.: Why do you care?
Miss S.: Maybe I can help.
Mr S.: Fine whatever but I already have the answer. The question is n + 3 - 5n + 12. I know it is -6n + 15.
Miss S.: Hmmm.... That doesn't sound right.
Mr S.: It is right.
Miss S.: It is wrong.
Mr S.: It is Right!
Miss S.: No. It is not. The answer should be -4n + 15. You have to group it by variables and numbers. You add the groups together and you have the answer.
Mr S.: You're right. I knew that..... I was just testing you!
Miss S.:Okay......... Any more questions?
Mr S.: Yes there is. 2 + 4(3n+4) but I know the answer to that one too. It is 12n + 10.
Miss S.: Wrong again. The answer is 12n + 34.
Mr S.: What?! No.
Miss S.: Yes. You Multiply each number in the brackets by the number just out side of it. So just the 4. You add the 2 on after. So you world get 12n + 32 + 2 after you multiply and then add the 2 to the 32 to get 12n + 34.
Mr S.: Right. I knew that! I was just testing you again.
Miss S.: Sure you were. Glad to help.
Mr S.: Help. You were only a pain in my neck.
Miss S.: Have a good day, Mr Stubborn.
Mr S.: Whatever, Miss Sunshine.

Sheldon:Hi
Sheldon:So can you help me with some of my math questions
Henry:Ok shure im bery bery smart
Sheldon:Ok then here is the first question..... n+3-5n+12 but I think the question is -6n+15
Henry:Ummm the answer is wrong the answer is negative 4n+15 because you have to group the variables and numbers after that it should look like this -5n + n is 4
Sheldon:Then what do you do after
Henry:You add them then you get the answer -4n+15
Sheldon:Ok I get it now
Henry:Ok so whats the next question
Sheldon:Ummmm its 2+4 (3n+8) then I got the answer 12n+10 its right isn't it!
Henry:AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.......nope its wrong
Sheldon:Then whats the answer smarty pants
Henry:Its 12n + 34 ok first you since the number 4 is touching the bracket its a multiplier so you multiply the numbers in the brackets got me so far
Sheldon:Yup then what do you do?
Henry:You multiply the 4 by 3n so the answer is 12n then with the 8 it equals 32 so your left with 2 + 12n + 32
Sheldon:ok......
Henry:then you group the variables and numbers so you add 32 and 2 and get 34
Sheldon:ok so you get the answer 12n + 34
Henry:yup happy now ?
Sheldon:I guess so

Chapter 2 : Combining like terms and the Distributive Property
Script:
Blaise: Really?
Cadence: Of course not! Let me explain.
Chapter 3 : One Step Equation Solving
Cadence: Hi Blaise
Blaise: Hi Cadence
Cadence: What are you up to?
Blaise: Oh nothing, just some math homework. It's pretty difficult...Harbeck is brutal!
Cadence: Really? Let's take a look. The first question is n+3-5n+12
Blaise: I got..-6n+15 for that one
Blaise: Is it right?
Cadence: Yes!Blaise: Really?
Cadence: Of course not! Let me explain.
Cadence: In a algebraic expression, you have to group the variables and numbers. The easiest way to do that is to put them in order, variab
les first. After doing this the expression should be -5n + n + 3 + 12. Got me so far?
Blaise: I think so. But what happens af
ter that?
Cadence: Once that is done and over with, you can add the variables. -5n + n is -4n , right?
Blaise: Sure, why not?
Cadence: Now lets add the numbers, an
d finish simplifying the question.
Blaise: This is simplifying?!
Cadence: Yes, what else would it be?
Blaise: I thought it was solving the problem.
Cadence: Nope. Since there is no equals sign in this question, we are merely simplifying it.
Blaise: Gotcha.
Cadence: ... Right. Carrying on. Adding the two leftover numbers, 3 and 12, we get 15. To finish answering this question, we add
both the answer from the variables and the numbers. This comes out to -4n + 15.
Blaise: Oh, I see. I now know where I went wrong.. I added the variables differently than you did. -5n + n isn't -6n, it's -4n.
Cadence: Okay, onto the next question, which is 2+4(3n+8)
Blaise: Ha, well the answer to that was obvious.
Cadence: Well then, what was it?
Blaise: 12n+10
Cadence: No, Blaise. Your wrong. Again.
Blaise: Fine then. Explain how to figure out this question.
Cadence: Okay. The first thing that you notice that is different in this question is the brackets, and the number right beside t
hem. Since this number is touching the bracket, it becomes a multiplier. This means that you multiply both the numbers inside the brackets by it. But before starting on this, lets write down the 2 +. Now lets multiply. Since the question is 2+4(3n+8) we multiply 4 by 3n, which is 12n, and 4 by 8, which is 32.
Blaise: So the result so far is 2 + 12n + 32?
Cadence: Correct. As said in the last question explanation, we have to group numbers and variables. Since there is only 1 variable in this question it will not need to be grouped, so we can just group 32 and 2. Adding these together we get 34.
Blaise: The answer is 12n + 34!
Cadence: Good job Blaise, but since you still think your a ninja, I'm a bit creeped out.
Blaise: *random dancing*

Combining Like Terms and the Distributive Property.
Pog: Hey
Adalrico: Hello. How may I help you?
Pog: I'm kind of low on money as you can see from my clothes, so I was wondering if you could make me a bank account.
Adalrico: Surely I could do something. Although, in order to obtain an account, you must go through a series of questions. It's a new policy that the manager has created.
Pog: Yeah whatever, as long as I get my account. I haven't eaten in days you know.
Adalrico: Well the first question isn't that hard, and if you graduated in school, you should answer this easily.
Pog: Alright then.
Adalrico: The first question is "n+ 3 -5n +12"
Pog: Algebra huh? That rhymed, im a poet and I didn't know it.
Adalrico: Please, just answer the queastion.
Pog: Well, I remember something about this in school. Maybe if I bring the N and -5n together, so then if i have negative 5 n's, and I add the other n, that would equal to negative 6 n's (-6n). Is that right so far?
Adalrico: Just continue and I'll tell you once you get your complete answer.
Pog: Fine then. So now, I'm left with -6n +3 +12. This part is easy, I just add the 3 and 12 to get 15. So my complete answer is now, -6n +15. Is that right?
Adalrico: I'm sorry sir, but that is incorrect.
Pog: What!? Show me then if your so smart.
Adalrico: Well, the last part you did was right, the part where you got positive 15. The part where you got wrong was when you were adding the variable.
Pog: Very what?
Adalrico: The variable, the unknown number. The n.
Pog: Oh okay, so how do I do it then?
Adalrico: Well sir, as you can see, there is no negative sign in front of the n. Although, there is a negative sign in front of the 5n. So, it's a simple addition question. Add 1 positive n to 5 negative n's. What would that equal?
Pog: Uh, it would equal a number.
Adalrico: Wow, it's very simple. That equation would equal to negative 4 n's (-4n).
Pog: So the right answer would be -4n +15?
Adalrico: Precisely.
Pog: I knew it! Well, kind of.
Adalrico: Well Pog, you could still get your bank account, but you would have to answer at least one question right. Would you like another question?
Pog: Bring it on then, I'm prepared for anything you give me.
Adalrico: Very well then. Your next question is 2 +4(3n +8).
Pog: Umm, hold on, let me try and remember what to do if there is brackets. I got it! When a bracket is touching a number, you multiply the two. So 4 multiplied by 3n. I think that would equal to 12n! Now that the brackets are gone, I'm left with 2+12n+8. Since I can't add the 2 to the 12n, I add it to the positive 8. So then, that would equal positive 10!
Adalrico: Once again, you are wrong.
Pog: Are you for real?
Adalrico: Sadly, yes. You messed up when you saw the brackets. It's true that you multiply when a number is touching a bracket, but in this case, we will use the Distributive Property.
Pog: Okay then, but how does it work?
Adalrico: When a number touches a bracket, the number outside of the bracket multiplies the numbers inside the brackets. So since the number touching the bracket is +4, and one of the numbers inside of the brackets is 3n, we multiply those two.
Pog: So it would be positive 4 multiplied by 3n right?
Adalrico: Exactly, now your getting the hang of it. Do you know the answer to that?
Pog: Well, if I have 4 groups of 3n's, then I would end up with 12n's! Right?
Adalrico: Yes, now since there is one more number inside of the brackets, you multiply the four with that number inside.
Pog: So, since a positive 8 is still in the brackets, you multiply that with the positive 4. Am I correct?
Adalrico: Of course. That would equal what Pog?
Pog: Uhmm, 4 groups of positive 8 would equal, 32!
Adalrico: Correct once again. Now tell me the all the integers you have so far.
Pog: 2 +12n +32. Just like the first question, I add the same type of numbers. Since the 12n doesn't fit in with anything else, I add the other two integers.
Adalrico: So then the integers you're adding are 2 + 32.
Pog: Finally, an easy question. 2+32 would simply equal 34.
Adalrico: Do you know what to do next?
Pog: Of course, you put the two integers together and create an expression.
Adalrico: And that expression would be?
Pog: It would be positive 12n +34.
Adalrico: At last, you come up with the right answer. Even if you made mistakes, but we'll forget about that. Have you learned from your mistakes?
Pog: Yeah, now may I have my bank account, I'm getting pretty hungry.
Adalrico: Haha, sure. There, your all ready to go.

HEY me and dean decides to make a rap to go along with the poems. I hope you appreciate it.
Jeremy:HEEEEEEEY you look smart ............you want to help me out
Allan:SURE.....whats your problem
Jeremy:i have this really hard math question
Allan:whats the question?
Jeremy:its .......n+3-5n+12 i think it is -6n+15 but my friend said i was wrong ....so can you tell me the answer
Allan:well let me think........ the answer is -4n+15
Jeremy:how do you know its -4n+15?
Allan:because......if you group like terms you get -5n+n+3+12, -5n+n is -4 and 3+12 is 15 you put it together and you get -4n+15
Jeremy:Oh i get my mistake i thought it was n+5n+3+12 so my answer was 6n+15.......okay, that explains that question, but what about 2+4(3n+8)
Allan:okay so this question has something called the distributive property. First you drop down the 2 then you multiply 4 and 3n which is positive12 after you multipy 4 and 8 which is 32 it should now be 2+12n+32.....after you should know you put like terms together which would make it 12n+2+32, and you just do simple adding 2 plus 32 is 34 and you just drop the 12n......so your answer should be 12n+34
Jeremy:OH okay, that makes sense i thought you add 2 and four so i put 6 multiplied by 3 then 6 multiplied by 8 which mad my answer 18n+48 now i know i was wrong..........hey thanks for all your help by the way my name is Jeremy

Jeremy:HEEEEEEEY you look smart ............you want to help me out
Allan:SURE.....whats your problem
Jeremy:i have this really hard math question
Allan:whats the question?
Jeremy:its .......n+3-5n+12 i think it is -6n+15 but my friend said i was wrong ....so can you tell me the answer
Allan:well let me think........ the answer is -4n+15
Jeremy:how do you know its -4n+15?
Allan:because......if you group like terms you get -5n+n+3+12, -5n+n is -4 and 3+12 is 15 you put it together and you get -4n+15
Jeremy:Oh i get my mistake i thought it was n+5n+3+12 so my answer was 6n+15.......okay, that explains that question, but what about 2+4(3n+8)

Adding Integers
adding integers is very easy to do
all you have to do is listen
Subtracting Integers
First you have to change and then you have to ad
this way you wont be so mad.
Multiplying Integers
2 times 2 is 4
if you get this right opportunity will be at the door
Ron's Rule
Ron's rule says that if I have odd amounts of negative integers I will have negative integers if I
multiply them. I think that rule is the creme de la creme.
Dividing integers
2 divide by 2 is 1
if you did this right you are as bright as the sun
Partitive Division
Megan has 5 bags of cookies
that look like wookies
all together she has 15
and all the people think she is the math queen.
Quotative Division
Quotative divison is how many 2s in 6
the way you can show this is with sticks!
PART 2
Hello son! Whats going on?
Im just going to my band practice.
That sounds like fun. But first your going to have to tell me something.Whats that?
Can you tell me what N means?
It's a number value.
Good job son! Your very bright!
Thanks dad.
Can you solve N plus 4?
No i can't because you didn't give me the sum of the question.
Im glad you caught that. The sum is 14.
ok then N would be 10.
Great job!
How did you get that answer?
First i needed the sum.
Then I figured out what went into 4 to make 14.
Wow thats great!
Now can you tell me what N plus N multiplied by 6 is?
Can i have the sum please?
Its.....54.
Ok....5 plus 4 equals 9 so then.....6 times 9 is......54!!
Wow son thats very good.
Oh i think the band is here.
Bye dad!
Bye son! Good luck!

PC: ok so what is the answer im a little slow with math
Mac: well i thing the answer is 2+7n+32
PC: it is but i thought you had to multiply the 4 and the 3n because there was a bracket and add the 2 to the 32 to make 34?

Chapter 2 Combining like terms and the Distributive Property
SCRIPT:
Lucy: Hey, how are you doing with the math work?
Vince: I'm doing pretty good! What about yourself?
Lucy: Well actually I was wondering if you could help me with this one algebraic expression... 'n+3-5n+12'.
Vince: Hm, it's not that hard you see. All you have to do is organize the terms, you circle like terms then regroup all of it. Then you simplify.
Lucy: I think the answer is '-6n+15', am I correct?
Vince: You circled 'n' and '-5n'... You regrouped, so then the expression should be 'n-5n+3+12'. Then simplified it should be '4n+15'. There's where you went wrong! Instead of adding a positive 'n' to '-5n' you added a negative 'n', that's how you got '-6n+15'!
Lucy: Oh really?! Wow, I never realized that I have made that mistake, and the answer should be '-4n+15'? ... Thanks for helping me, if you need some help I'll be there!
*A few minutes after working in silence.
Vince: Hey, since you said you'd help me if I needed it, could you help me with just this question... '2+4(3n+8)'. I came up with the answer '12n+10'.
Lucy: This uses the distributed property: '4(3n+8)' and you use bring down 2. You have to identify your terms inside the brackets, which are '3n' and 8. Then the next step you multiply '3n' by the number 4, and 8 by 4. Then if it's properly simplified the question should now read: '2+12n+32'.
Vince: That's what I wrong! I see now, continue please.
Lucy: You then circle the like terms 2 and 32. Reorganize the expression, then combine like terms! Then answer should be '12n+32'.
Vince: Oh! Thanks for helping me solve the question!
Lucy: You're welcome!
Vince: Hey, wait!
Lucy: Yes, what?
Vince: Do you want to go to lunch together?

Chapter 3: One Step Equation Solving
Additive Equation: The first thing I did was isolate the variable by adding it's opposite; (-4). The next thing I did was to balance the equation by doing the same thing you did to one side to the other. The equation should now look like this: -4+4+n=6-4. Then I cancel out the zero pairs! Now you should be left with n=2. Verify is the next thing you do, replacing the variable with 2.
Subtractive Equation: Isolate the variable by adding the opposite of the constant; (-4). Balance it out doing the same thing to the other side: x-4+4=8. Cancel out, and you should be left with x=12. Don't forget to verify.
Multiplicitive Equation: Isolate the variable, divide by 2 on both sides so they're balanced! Then all your left with: n=8. Now all you do is verify, you replace 'n' with 8: 2(8)=16. Does that work? YEAH! 16=16
Divisive Equation: The first thing you have to do is to isolate the variable just like all the previous ones. What's the opposite of dividing by 5? Multiplying by 5! Then don't forget to balance the equation out, by doing the same thing to the other side. Zero pairs should be gone now! The last step is to verify, to make sure it's correct. 2=2

JULIE: OH nothing much, Just doing my math homework.
KALLY: Do you need some help?
JULIE: Yahh, This ALGEBRA is so hard.
KALLY: Well Let's see your paper.
JULIE: Umm... here you go... The Question is n+3-5n+12
KALLY: ohhh... i see you... you actually got the answer wrong.
JULIE: But i thought it was -6n+15.
KALLY: no... Well you are surpose to simplify it... there is no equal sign there
JULIE: Well i thought we were surpose to add them or something
KALLY: Here is how you do it.. First you have to you have to group the variables and numbers. You also have to put them in order so it will be easier.
After doing that the expression should be -5n + n + 3 + 12. ok
JULIE: Okay i think i get it
KALLY: add the numbers, and finish simplifying the question.
JULIE: Ok I'll do that
KALLY: Add the two leftover numbers, 3 and 12, we get 15. To finish answering this question, you have to add both the answer from the variables and the numbers. Then the answer comes out to -4n + 15.
JULIE : ok then on to the next question
KALLY: Well tell me what the question is?
JULIE: oh um... The next question is 2+4(3n+8).. um i think i know the answer to this question
KALLY: Well what is it
KALLY: you got the answer wrong agains silly..
JULIE: Well what is the answer then..
KALLY: Well you have to simplify it..plus you have to do the brackets first.
KALLY: Well first you have to multiply the 4 that is outside the brackets with the 8 inside it you will get 32 then you multily the 4 by the 3n the answer is 12. When you've done that you have to add the 2 to the 32 and as your final answer you get 12n+34.
JULIE: Well that was easy...Thank You for helping me with my math homework Kally.
KALLY: You are very welcome...
The end
The Great Big Book of Algebra
Chapter One:
Additive: First, I isolated the variable. I isolated the variable by adding its opposite, which would be -2. Since I added -2 to the left side, I must balance it out, so I have to add it to the right side. After that, I crossed out +2 and -2, because they make zero pairs, and zero pairs are worth nothing. Then, I got n=6-2. So I solved 6-2, which led me to n=4. Finally, I verified by plugging in what n equals where n is supposed to go.
Subtractive: First, I isolated the variable by adding +3 to the left side, then I also did it on the other side to balance it out. Next, I crossed out -3 and +3 because they are zero pairs. Next I solved 7+3. Then I got n=10. Finally, I verified by plugging in what n equals where n is supposed to go.
Multiplicitave: First, I isolated the variable by dividing 3n by 3 on the left side, and I also did it on the right side to balance it out. Then I crossed out 3 and 3 because they cancel eachother out. Next, I solved 6/3. Then I got n=2. Finally, I verified by plugging in what n equals where n is supposed to go.

Matthew: Hi, Auntie Donna!
Auntie Donna: Hi Matthew!
Matthew: I have a math test tomorrow and I was wondering if you could test me with a couple of algebra questions.
Auntie Donna: Oh, sure. Hmm... Let me think of one... How about n+3-5n+12.
Matthew: Hmm... I think the answer is -6n+15
Auntie Donna: Your answer is incorrect, Matthew. Let's simply go back and take a look at how to do this question, and what you did wrong while solving it.
Matthew: Oh, shucks! Well, alright...
Auntie Donna: Well, first you must re-group the numbers to make it easier to solve. Therefore it should be, n-5n+3+12.Then combine like terms and solve it. Which means combine all the terms that are the same. Now, it should be, -4n+15. Now you have simplified it.
Matthew: Well, what did I do, to get my incorrect answer?
Auntie Donna: Hmm... Well, if we go back and look at it, you added -n and -5n instead of subtracting -5n from n.
Matthew: Oh, I see I see... Can you give me one more question?
Auntie Donna: Sure. How about, 2+4(3n+8).
Matthew: Okay, I'll try it. Uh... I came up with 12n+10.
Auntie Donna: Once again, you're incorrect. Let's go back and do step by step again.
Matthew: Aww... okay.
Auntie Donna: Okay, so with this question, there is distributive property going on. You can underline it so that you know where it happens. So, put the 2 first because you know that it's going to stay because it's not part of the distributive property. Now, take the number beside the bracket and multiply the two terms inside the brackets. It should now be, 2+12n+32. Now re-group it. It should be, 12n+2+32. Combine the like terms like last time. It should be, 12n+34. And that should be your simplified expression.
Matthew: Oh, right. Well, explain to me what I did wrong.
Auntie Donna: Oh yeah. Well, when you first looked at the question, instead of multiplying both terms in the bracket, you just multiplied the first one, and added the last two integers. Which is why you got the answer 12n+10.
Matthew: Ooooohhh. I get it now. It really is easy now that you've explained it all. Thanks Auntie Donna! I hope I do well on my math test.
Auntie Donna: Oh, I'm sure you will, but just remember to go step by step. It's okay to use lots of paper because we recycle!
Auntie Donna: Hi Matthew!
Matthew: I have a math test tomorrow and I was wondering if you could test me with a couple of algebra questions.
Auntie Donna: Oh, sure. Hmm... Let me think of one... How about n+3-5n+12.
Matthew: Hmm... I think the answer is -6n+15
Auntie Donna: Your answer is incorrect, Matthew. Let's simply go back and take a look at how to do this question, and what you did wrong while solving it.
Matthew: Oh, shucks! Well, alright...
Auntie Donna: Well, first you must re-group the numbers to make it easier to solve. Therefore it should be, n-5n+3+12.Then combine like terms and solve it. Which means combine all the terms that are the same. Now, it should be, -4n+15. Now you have simplified it.
Matthew: Well, what did I do, to get my incorrect answer?
Auntie Donna: Hmm... Well, if we go back and look at it, you added -n and -5n instead of subtracting -5n from n.
Matthew: Oh, I see I see... Can you give me one more question?
Auntie Donna: Sure. How about, 2+4(3n+8).

Chapter 3: One Step Equation Solving
Additive: First, I isolated the variable. I isolated the variable by adding its opposite, which would be -2. Since I added -2 to the left side, I must balance it out, so I have to add it to the right side. After that, I crossed out +2 and -2, because they make zero pairs, and zero pairs are worth nothing. Then, I got n=6-2. So I solved 6-2, which led me to n=4. Finally, I verified by plugging in what n equals where n is supposed to go.Subtractive: First, I isolated the variable by adding +3 to the left side, then I also did it on the other side to balance it out. Next, I crossed out -3 and +3 because they are zero pairs. Next I solved 7+3. Then I got n=10. Finally, I verified by plugging in what n equals where n is supposed to go.Multiplicitave: First, I isolated the variable by dividing 3n by 3 on the left side, and I also did it on the right side to balance it out. Then I crossed out 3 and 3 because they cancel eachother out. Next, I solved 6/3. Then I got n=2. Finally, I verified by plugging in what n equals where n is supposed to go.ATTENTION PLEASE ! : On, my title of the picture there, I meant to put DIVISIVE, not DIVISITIVE. Thank you. :)
Divisive: First, I isolated the variable by multiplying n by 2. Then I got 2n/2. I also did it on the other side to balance it out. Then I crossed out the 2 and the 2, because they cancel eachother out. Then I solved 4(2) and I got n=8. Finally, I verifiedby plugging in the what n equals where n is supposed to go.
