  1. first transpose the -53 so that you can solve for n

    so n= -28 + 53

    because you transposed the -53 to the other side, you need to change its sign, that's why it became +58

    so now add -28 to 53

    n = 25

    CHECKING: (to check, substitute the final answer that you got to the "n")

    -53 + 25 = -28

    -28 = -28


  2. -53+n=-28

    +53     +53

    n=25

  3. -53 + n = -28

    -53 + n + 53 = -28 + 53

    n = 25

  4. -53 + n = -28

    n = -28 + 53

    n = 25

  5. -53 + n = -28

    n = -28 + 53

    n = 25

    Hope this helps! ^__^

  6. n=-25

  7. n=-28+53=25

  8. You have to apply the addition property to solve this equation.

    -53 + n = -28

    -53 + n + (53) = -28 + (53)  (addition property of equality)

    n= -28 + 53

    n =  25

    Check:

    -53 + 25 = - 28

    -28 = -28
