6(-3v+1)=5(-2v-2)

Distribute 6 into -3v+1

-18v+6 = 5(-2v-2)

Distribute 5 into -2v-2

-18v+6 = -10v-10

Add 18v to both sides

6 = 8v - 10

Add 10 to both sides

16 = 8v

Divide 8 on both sides

Final Answer: 2 = v

6(-3v+1) = 5(-2v-2)
-18v+6 = -10v-10
-8v+6 = -10
-8v = -4
(divid both sides by -4)

v = 2
