Answer 1

n-8+n=1-4n
2n-8=1-4n
2n+4n=1+8
6n=9
n=9/6
n=3/2

Answer 2

`n-8+n=1-4n\\\\2n-8=1-4n\ \ \ \ \ |add\ 8\ to\ both\ sides\\\\2n=9-4n\ \ \ \ \ |add\ 4n\ to\ both\ sides\\\\6n=9\ \ \ \ \ \ |divide\ both\ sides\ by\ 6\\\\n=(9)/(6)\ \ \ \ \ |divide\ a\ numerator\ and\ a\ denominator\ by\ 3\\\\n=(3)/(2)\\\\\boxed{n=1(1)/(2)}`
