You asked:

Solve the equation \(-\left( 5 \cdot \left(6 n - 3\right) \right) + 8 \cdot \left(n - 8\right) = 5 + n - 8\) for the variable \(n\).

MathBot Answer:

The solution is: \[n = -2\]


\[\begin{aligned}-\left( 5 \cdot \left(6 n - 3\right) \right) + 8 \cdot \left(n - 8\right) &= 5 + n - 8\\- 22 n - 49 &= n - 3\\- 23 n &= 46\\n &= -2\end{aligned}\]
