Answer:

s = 3

Explanation:

-6 = s - 9

Seap sides and so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.

s - 9 = -6

Add 9 to both sides.

s = -6 + 9

Add -6 and 9 to get 3.

s = 3

S=3
-6=s-9
+6 +6 add six to both sides
0=s-3
-s -s Subtract s on both sides
-s=-3
Divide by -1 to get positive
s=3
