-89=1-2n+2
Use the distributive property to multiply n-1 by -2.
-89=3-2n
Add 1 and 2 to get 3.
3-2n=-89
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
-2n=-89-3
Subtract 3 from both sides.
-2n=-92
Subtract 3 from -89 to get -92.
n=\frac{-92}{-2}
Divide both sides by -2.
n=46
Divide -92 by -2 to get 46.
