3h = 7((2)/(7) -(3)/(7)h)-10

I've been able to simplify it a good deal but can't figure out how to solve it in the end,... 17 points to you,... thanks,...!


3h = 7((2)/(7) -(3)/(7)h)-10\\
Parenthesis Simplification

3h = 2 -3h-10\\
Re-write equation

3h = 2-10-3h\\
Subtract

3h = -8-3h\\
Add 3h to both sides of the equation to take away the "- 3h"

3h+3h = -8-3h+3h
Simplify

6h = -8\\
Divide?

3h = -4\\
Then what?

Thanks for the help,... please answer in full explanation,... Chow!

Your method is correct.

Now,


\implies 3h = -4

Divide both sides with
3


3h / 3 = -4 / 3


h = -1.333...

h = -4/3 just transfer the 3 into denominator it will be the simplest answer.
