Hey!
In order to simplify this equation, we'll first have to multiply both sides of the equation by v. This will give us v on its own.
Original Equation :
New Equation {Added Multiply Both Sides by V} :
Solution {New Equation Solved} :![-3 = -6v](https://img.qammunity.org/2019/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/vtns0pxs1jxmhdxsvm91ms5o9j8hf8slc0.png)
Now we'll switch sides to get v on the left side of the equation which is generally where we always want the variables to be located in these types of equations.
Old Equation :
New Equation {Switched} :![-6v=-3](https://img.qammunity.org/2019/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/wknbuljzmyxliz71eya5v698wnp0o9scr9.png)
Now we'll divide both sides by v to get v on its own.
Old Equation :
New Equation {Added Divide Both Sides by V} :
Solution {New Equation Solved} :
So, this means that in the equation
, ![v = (1)/(2)](https://img.qammunity.org/2019/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/9348frwyqj5hfp0f4veadz681qtwd8jlty.png)
