Question

8 = 8 (v - 5) is the solution 6 or -10 or -1 or 2 or is none of them the solution

Answer 1

solution is v=6

Explanation:

8=8(v-5)

1. expand the brackets

8=8v-40

2. get the v on one side so we +40 on each side

48=8v

3. divide each side by 8 as we want the value of v not 8v

6=v

4. Therefore your final answer is v=6 (solution is 6)
