Answer:

The answer to the given equation -g+2(3+g)=-4(g+1) is g=-2

Explanation:

Given -g+2(3+g)=-4(g+1)

To solve the given equation :

-g+2(3+g)=-4(g+1)

Applying the distributive property we get

-g+2(3)+2(g)=-4(g)+(-4)(1)

-g+6+2g=-4g-4

g+6=-4g-4 ( adding the like terms )

g+6-(-4g-4)=-4g-4-(-4g-4)

Applying the distributive property we get

g+6-(-4g)-(-4)=-4g-4-(-4g)-(-4)

g+6+4g+4=-4g-4+4g+4

5g+10=0 ( adding the like terms )

5g+10-10=0-10

5g=-10 ( adding the like terms )


g=-(10)/(5)


g=-2

Therefore g=-2

The answer to the given equation -g+2(3+g)=-4(g+1) is g=-2
