The i-Ready Answer:

h=14

The i-Ready Explanation:

1/2h-12= -5

+12 +12 ( Add 12 on both sides )

1/2h=7

2 x 1/2h=2 x 7 ( Multiply by 2 on both sides )

h=14

Answer:

Here is how to isolate the variable h.

Explanation:

First, you have to isolate the variable which in this equation is "h." So you're going to add 2 to each side, which will give you

1/2h -2 + 2 = -5 + 2

1/2h = 3

now you've isolate the variable and you can solve for h.

(h = 6)
