Question

What is the answer too -(6h+7)+8=-19

Answer 1

-(6h+7)+8 = -19
-6h-7+8 = -19
-6h = -19 + 7 - 8
-6h = -20
h = -20 / -6
h = 10/3

Answer 2

h = 10/3

Explanation:

-(6h+7)+8=-19

Distribute the minus sign

-6h-7+8=-19

Combine like terms

-6h +1 = -19

Subtract 1 from each side

-6h +1-1 = -19-1

-6h = -20

Divide by -6

-6h/-6 = -20/-6

h = 20/6

h = 10/3
