Answer:

s = 95

Explanation:

1. -24 = 6(s - 99)

2.-24/6 = (s - 99) Divide both sides by 6 to eliminate the 6 from the right side

3. -4 = s - 99 Since you are dividing a negative number by a positive number, it will result in a negative quotient. You can also remove the parenthesis.

4. -4 + 99 = s Add 99 to both sides to cancel out the -99 and now you are only left with s on the right side.

5. 95 = s Solve
