Solve 2n-1/2=-2

$$2 n - 1 / 2 = - 2$$

Solve for n

$$n=-\frac{3}{4}=-0.75$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Add \frac{1}{2} to both sides.

$$2n=-2+\frac{1}{2}$$

Convert -2 to fraction -\frac{4}{2}.

$$2n=-\frac{4}{2}+\frac{1}{2}$$

Since -\frac{4}{2} and \frac{1}{2} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$2n=\frac{-4+1}{2}$$

Add -4 and 1 to get -3.

$$2n=-\frac{3}{2}$$

Divide both sides by 2.

$$n=\frac{-\frac{3}{2}}{2}$$

Express \frac{-\frac{3}{2}}{2} as a single fraction.

$$n=\frac{-3}{2\times 2}$$

Multiply 2 and 2 to get 4.

$$n=\frac{-3}{4}$$

Fraction \frac{-3}{4} can be rewritten as -\frac{3}{4} by extracting the negative sign.

$$n=-\frac{3}{4}$$
