Question

Solve 22 = - 3d + 1. Show your steps.

Answer 1

22 - 1 = -3d
21= -3d
21/-3= d
-7 = d

Bring the 1 to the other side by doing the opposite sign, so subtract 1. Solve the left side.

Bring the 3 to the other side by doing the opposite sign, so divide 21 by -3.

End with D equaling -7

Answer 2

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for D.

Subtract 1 from both sides of the equation.

22 - 1 = -3d + 1 - 1

21 = -3d

Divide both sides by -3.

21 ÷ -3 = -3d ÷ -3

-7 = d

d is equal to -7.
