Step 2.2.1

Dividing two negative values results in a positive value.

$\frac{q}{1} = \frac{46.4}{- 1} + \frac{0.02 n}{- 1}$

Step 2.2.2

Divide $q$ by $1$ .

$q = \frac{46.4}{- 1} + \frac{0.02 n}{- 1}$

Step 2.3.1.1

Divide $46.4$ by $- 1$ .

$q = - 46.4 + \frac{0.02 n}{- 1}$

Step 2.3.1.2

Move the negative one from the denominator of $\frac{0.02 n}{- 1}$ .

$q = - 46.4 - 1 \cdot (0.02 n)$

Step 2.3.1.3

Rewrite $- 1 \cdot (0.02 n)$ as $- (0.02 n)$ .

$q = - 46.4 - (0.02 n)$

Step 2.3.1.4

Multiply $0.02$ by $- 1$ .

$q = - 46.4 - 0.02 n$
