−83n−9−90
Subtract the numbers
−83n−99
−83n−99=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
−83n=0+99
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−83n=99
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
83n=−99
Divide both sides
8383n=83−99
Divide the numbers
n=83−99
