Question

How many solutions? -3(v + 4) = 2v - 37





​

Answer 1

-3(v+4) = 2v-37

-3v-12 = 2v-37

-3v-2v = -37+12

-5v = -25

v = -25/-5

v = +5

Answer 2

One solution.

v = 5

Explanation:

- 3(v + 4) = 2v - 37

- 3v - 12 = 2v - 37

- 3v - 12 + 12 = 2v - 37 + 12

- 3v = 2v - 25

- 3v - 2v = 2v - 2v - 25

- 5v = - 25

- 5v ÷ - 5 = - 25 ÷ - 5

v = 5
