Question

What is 6(5−8v)+12=−54

Answer 1

Answer: v = 2

Explanation:

30-48v+12 = -54

-48v = -54-30-12

`(-48v)/(-48)` =
`(-96)/(-48)`

v = 2

Answer 2

2

Explanation:

6(5−8v)+12=−54

Divide through by 6, we have

5 — 8v + 2 = — 9

Collect like terms

— 8v = —9 — 2 — 5

—8v = — 16

Divide both side by the coefficient of v i.e —8

v = — 16/ —8

v = 2
