Answer:

g equals 1

g = 1

Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

g=1

Explanation:

Given equation is \[−3+5+6g=11−3g\]

Simplifying, \[2 + 6g = 11 - 3g\]

Bringing all terms containing g to the left side of the equation and all the numeric terms to the other side,

\[3g + 6g = 11 - 2\]

=> \[9g = 9\]

=> \[g=\frac{9}{9}\]

=> g = 1

Validating by substituting in the given equation:

Left Hand Side = -3 + 5 + 6 = 8

Right Hand Side = 11 - 3 = 8

Hence the two sides of the equation are equal when g = 1.
