-3v+11=-8v+51

1. add 3v to -3v, then add 3v to the other side.
11=-8v+11+51+3v

2. add 11 and 51
11=-8v+62+3v

3. add 3v to -8v
11=-5v+62

4. subtract 62 from 62, then subtract 62 from 11
-51=-5v

5. divide -5v by 5, then divide -51 by 5
-10.2=v

Answer: -10.2

Answer: V=8 (If solving for V)

Explanation:

-3v+11=-8v+51 Move the variable to the left hand side and change its sign.

-3v+8v+11=51 Collect the like terms

5v=51-11 Divide both sides of the equation by 5

v=8

Hope this helps!!
