Answer:

v=3

Explanation:

3v-2=7

Isolate the variable

Add 2 to both sides.

3v=9

Divide both sides by 3.

v=3

Hope this helps!

The answer you are looking for is v=3.

Solution/Explanation:

Writing out the equation first

3v-2=7

Adding 2 to both sides

3v-2+2=7+2

Since -2+2=0, this cancels out.

3v+0=7+2

3v=7+2

7+2=9

So, therefore,

3v=9

Finally, dividing both sides by 3

3v/3=9/3

3v/3=v

9/3=3

You will get v=3.

So, therefore, the final answer to this problem is v=3.

Hope this helped you. Good day to you.
