What is the first step in this equation?

17n-23n+11.5n=44

• combine like terms: 17n-23n+11.5n to equal 5.5n=44

• subtract 11.5 from both sides

• add 23 to both sides

what does this equation look like after we combine like terms AND THEN subtract the constant (numbers not next to the letter)?

-12t+10+32=78

• -12t+10=78

• -12t=36

• 12t+42=78
