Move all terms containing n to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-2n' to each side of the equation.
-2 + -2n + -2n = 5 + 2n + -2n

Combine like terms: -2n + -2n = -4n
-2 + -4n = 5 + 2n + -2n

Combine like terms: 2n + -2n = 0
-2 + -4n = 5 + 0
-2 + -4n = 5

Add '2' to each side of the equation.
-2 + 2 + -4n = 5 + 2

Combine like terms: -2 + 2 = 0
0 + -4n = 5 + 2
-4n = 5 + 2

Combine like terms: 5 + 2 = 7
-4n = 7

Divide each side by '-4'.
n = -1.75

Simplifying
n = -1.75
