Hello!

So, we are given the following to solve.

Solve for v.


(v)/(8)-3.1=-15.9

To solve for v, we to do as follows:

1. Add 3.1 to both sides.


  • (v)/(8)-3.1+3.1=-15.9+3.1

2. Simplify.


  • (v)/(8) =-12.8

3. Multiply both sides by 8.


  • (8v)/(8)=8(-12.8)

4. Simplify.


  • v=-102.4 ← Hence, our solution.

Hope this helps!
