text: ### Scribe Post for January 9, 2009
  
  Sunday, January 11, 2009
  Well I guess I'm the scribe today (: In class we were talking about a few questions . Here are some of the questions we talked about .
  
  1st step: Is to rewrite the question.
  
  2nd step: Group! Then you find the answer.
  
  Here's another question we worked on. -2n=6
  
  I was stumped on this question, and I think I still am, but im going to try my best to explain.
  
  First of all you CAN'T have a negative 'n'! It's like nothing = something, it's not right!
  
  So, you have to change it to a positive. How? You switch negative 'n' to positive and and change the positive 3 to a negative 3.
  
  "If you have a '-n' that is (-1)n. You must multiply each side by (-1)"
  
  (-1) - n = 5 (-1) and that equals: n = (- 5)
  
  Other than the stuff about changing negative n to positive n, there's one more thing that I almost forgot.
  
  1/2n=5 ..&.. n/2=5 : They are the same thing. Just simplify, it makes it easier!
  
  I'm soo sorry if you guys don't like my scribe post :( It was rushed, I'm soo busy. Please let me know if there's any mistakes, because I know there are many! I, myself don't like my scribe post so I'll update it when I have time. I'm sorry if it didn't meet your expectations... I still need to study it, so I can understand it better.
  
  Well, ANYWAYS .. The next scribe is .... Ben, if you didn't already do one.
explanation: The document is a scribe post from a class session where the student discusses a few math questions and their solutions. It includes a detailed explanation of how to solve the equation \(-2n = 6\) and mentions another equation \(1/2n = 5\) and \(n/2 = 5\). The post contains a question and an attempt to answer it, but the explanation is somewhat incomplete and the student expresses uncertainty.
distilabel_metadata.content: Evaluate the user given text extract and determine if it contains a math question and optionally and answer to this question.
  
  Output rules:
  
  1. Briefly describe the document and mention if it contains a question or a question and answer.
  2. Finalize the output with: Label: no-question,question,question-and-answer,multiple-question,multiple-question-and-answer
