It's difficult to tell what you're asking. It looks to me like:

-17x = -204 ---> x = (-204)/(-17) = 12

21 = -7n ---> n = 21/(-7) = -3

-143 = -11x ---> x = (-143)/(-11) = 13

-16 + x = -15 --> x = -15 + 16 = 1

n-8 = -10 --> n = -10 + 8 = -2

Is this what you mean?

Remember that when you multiply (or divide) two Negatives, you get a Positive.

A Negative * Positive = Negative; Negative / Positive = Negative;

Positive / Negative = Negative.

To isolate n in something like [n-8], you need to add 8 to both sides of the equation.

For the equation -17x = -204, divide both sides by -17 to get x = 12. For the equation 21 = -7n, divide both sides by -7 to get n = -3. For the equation -143 = -11x, divide both sides by -11 to get x = 13. For the equation -16 + x = -15, add 16 to both sides to get x = 1. For the equation n - 8 = -10, add 8 to both sides to get n = -2.
