Question

What is the solution to the equation Negative 3 (h + 5) + 2 = 4 (h + 6) minus 9?

Answer 1

h = -10

Explanation:

The solution to the equation is h = -10. To solve for h, we need to isolate h on one side of the equation. We do this by adding 9 to both sides, subtract 4h from both sides, and add 5 to both sides. This gives us:

Negative 3 (h + 5) + 2 + 9 = 4 (h + 6) - 9 + 9

Negative 3h + 14 = 4h + 15

Negative 3h - 4h = 15 - 14

-7h = 1

h = -1/7

h = -10
