What is the value of n in the equation –(2n + 4) + 6 = –9 + 4(2n + 1)?

–(2n + 4) + 6 = –9 + 4(2n + 1)

-2n - 4 + 6 = - 9 + 4*2n + 4*1

-2n - 4 + 6 = - 9 + 8n + 4   
 
Take all the n's to one side and numbers to the other side. Sign changes to + or - when equality sign is crossed to other side of equation.

-2n - 8n  = - 9 + 4 + 4 -6   

-10n    =  -7

n =  -7/-10

n = 7/10  or 0.7

The final result is: n = 7/10 or n = 0.7.
