1.    n + 4 = -10                                          2.    n - 6 = 12                                            3.    n - 12 = -23
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

4.    n - 4.3 = 5                                           5.    n + 5.4 = 9.3                                       6.    4.3 + n = 30
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

7.    40 = n + 6                                            8.    -34 = n - 6                                          9.    n - 7.6 = -4.3
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

10.    ¼ + n = ¾                                         11.     -¼ + n = ¾                                       12.     -¼ + n = -¾
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

13.    n + 2 - 20 = 23 + 43                         14.    -3.4 = 1.2 + 2.2 + n                           15.     n - 12 = -12
