Question

How do I solve 12 to 16

Answer 1

12)
Distribute first:
36v+36-5 = 1 + 6v

Combine like terms.
36v + 31 = 1 + 6v

Subtract 6v.
30v +31 = 1

Subtract 31.
30v =-30

Divide by 30.
v = -1

14)
Distribute the -7.
-16 +5n = 42 -56n + 3

Combine like terms.
-16 + 5n = 45 -56n

Add 56n.
-16 + 61n = 45

Add 16.
61n = 61

Divide by 61.
n =1

16)
Distribute 3 and -6.
-10n + 24 + 24n =-6n+24

Combine like terms.
14n +24 = -6n +24

Add 6n.
20n + 24 = 24

Subtract 24.
20n = 0

Divide by 20.
n = 0
