Question

Solution -9-8(1+4h)= -17

Answer 1

-9 -8 (1+4h) = -17

-9 -8 - 32h = -17

-17 -32h = -17

-32h = 0

h = 0

Answer 2

Step 1. Add 9 to both sides


`-8(1+4h)=-17+9`

Step 2. Simplify
`-17+9` to
`-8`


`-8(1+4h)=-8`

Step 3. Divide both sides by
`-8`


`1+4h=1`

Step 4. Cancel 1 on both sides


`4h=0`
Step 5. Divide both sides by 4


`h=0`

Done! :) Hope this helps! :)

To check
`-9-8(1+4h)=-17` follow these steps below:

`-9-8*(1+4*0)=-17`

Step 2. Simplify 4 * 0 to 0


`-9-8*(1+0)=-17`

Step 3. Simplify 1 + 0 to 1


`-9-8*1=-17`

Step 4. Simplify 8 * 1 to 8


`-9-8=-17`

Step 5. Simplify -9 -8 to -17
