Answer:

Explanation:

-4(v-7)+5 = -4v +37

STEP 1 - Multiply -4 by numbers inside the bracket

-4v+28 + 5 = -4v + 37

STEP 2 - Collect like terms (CLT)

-4v + 33 = -4v + 37

STEP 3 - Subtract 33 to both sides

-4v = -4v + 37 - 33

-4v = -4v +4

STEP 4 - Add 4v to both sides

0 = 4

Therefore this equation has no solution.

you’d have to add -4v by 4v which would cancel out the whole thing
Solve each equation -4(v-7)+5=-4v +37-example-1
