Question

-g-15 = -12. what does g equal to?​

Answer 1

I think g equals -3

Explanation:

Answer 2

g is equal to -3

Explanation:

from the question , we have

-g - 15 = -12

to find the value of g, the first step to take is to collect the like terms

-g - 15 = -12

we have,

-g = -12 + 15 ( minus will change to plus when crossing over the equal = sign)

so,

-g = 3

since we are asked to find the value of g and not -g

we divide both sides by - sign

-g/- = 3/-

g = -3

to check if your answer is correct put g = -3 in the original equation

-g - 15 = -12

-(-3) - 15 = -12

-12 = -12....... proved
