10-2n-\left(-5\right)=6-3n
To find the opposite of 2n-5, find the opposite of each term.
10-2n+5=6-3n
The opposite of -5 is 5.
15-2n=6-3n
Add 10 and 5 to get 15.
15-2n+3n=6
Add 3n to both sides.
15+n=6
Combine -2n and 3n to get n.
n=6-15
Subtract 15 from both sides.
n=-9
Subtract 15 from 6 to get -9.
