Question

16d+2/3=14(d−2) d=
solve for D

Answer 1

d =
`-(43)/(3)`

Explanation:

Step 1: we will simplify both sides of the equation

16d + 2/3 = (14)(d) + (14)(−2)

16d + 2/3 = 14d + −28

16d + 2/3 = 14d - 28

Step 2: we need to subtract 14d on both sides

16d + 2/3 - 14d = 14d - 28 - 14d

2d + 2/3 = -28vide both

Step 3: we will subtract 2/3 from both sides

2d + 2/3 - 2/3 = -28 - 2/3

2d = -86/3

Step 4: Divide both side by 2

2d/2 = d

-86/3/2 = -43/3

d = -43/3
