Answer: g=41

Explanation:


Distribute
3(g-7)=2(10+g)

3g-21=2(10+g)


Rearrange terms

3g-21=2(10+g)

3g-21=2(g+10)


Distribute

3g-21=2(g+10)

3g-21=2g+20

Answer:

g = 41

Explanation:

3(g - 7) = 2(10 + g) = 3g - 21 = 20 + 2g = 3g−21 = 20 + 2g

Subtract 2g from both sides.

3g − 21 − 2g = 20

Combine 3g and −2g to get g.

g − 21 = 20

Add 21 to both sides. g = 20 + 21

Add 20 and 21 to get 41.

g = 41
