Answer 1

V=6

Explanation:

Hope this helped! :)

Simplifying

3(3v + -5) = 39

Reorder the terms:

3(-5 + 3v) = 39

(-5 * 3 + 3v * 3) = 39

(-15 + 9v) = 39

Solving

-15 + 9v = 39

Solving for variable 'v'.

Move all terms containing v to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '15' to each side of the equation.

-15 + 15 + 9v = 39 + 15

Combine like terms: -15 + 15 = 0

0 + 9v = 39 + 15

9v = 39 + 15

Combine like terms: 39 + 15 = 54

9v = 54

Divide each side by '9'.

v = 6

Simplifying

v = 6

Answer 2

v = 6

Explanation:

Given

3(3v-5) = 39

So,

3v - 5 = 39 / 3

=> 3v - 5 = 13

=> 3v = 13 + 5

=> 3v = 18

=> v = 18 / 3

=> v = 6
