KEY CONCEPT: The sum of all of the rows = The sum of all of the columns
So, 3 + 6 + 9 + 0 = (-2) + 7 + n + 5
Solve: n = 8

Answer: C

Sum of all 4 rows = 3 + 6 + 9 + 0 = 18.
Sum of all 4 columns = -2 + 7 + n + 5 = n + 10.
The values in blue must be EQUAL, since each represents the sum of all 16 values in the table.
Thus:
n+10 = 18
n=8.

The correct answer is C.

We see that from the first row, we have 2X + W + Z = 3 and from the first column, X + W + 2Z = -2. If we subtract the 2nd equation from the first, we have X - Z = 5. Thus Z = X - 5. Plugging this back into the first equation, we have:

2X + W + (X - 5) = 3

3X + W - 5 = 3

3X + W = 8

Notice that n is the sum of the 3rd column, which is 3X + W, so n must be 8.

Answer: C
