Question

3 different problems.

solve b - 4 = 3.

solve -32 = 8w

solve n
— = -4
7

Answer 1

Answer:

1. b = 7

2. w = -4

3. n = -28

Explanation:

1. b - 4 = 3

Tip: Whenever there’s a number being subtracted or added, it’s best to make that number a 0

Step 1. Add 4 to both sides

b - 4 = 3

b + 4 = +4

b = 7

—————————————
2. -32 = 8w

Step 1. Isolate the variable
(by dividing both sides by 8)

w = -32/8

w = -4

—————————————
3. n/7 = -4

Step 1. Multiply 7 x -4

n = -28

Answer 2

see below

Explanation:

b - 4 = 3

Add 4 to each side

b - 4+4 = 3+4

b = 7

-32 = 8w

Divide by 8

-32/8 = 8w/8

-4 = w

n/7 = -4

Multiply by 7 to each side

n/7 *7 = -4*7

n = -28
