The answer to this equation would be an infinite amount of solutions.

Explanation:

n−15+7n−48=7(2n−9)−6n Distribute
n−15+7n−48=14n−63−6n Combine like terms
8n−63=8n−63 Add 63 to both sides
8n=8n Divide both sides by 8
n=n

Finally, the answer n=n means that there would be an infinite amount of solutions for the equation (in other words, the equation would always be true for any given value of x).
