Question

Solve for g.
3=9/-4 - 5

Answer 1

g = -32

Explanation:

3 = g/-4 - 5

Multiply both sides of the equation by -4

-12 = g + 20

Swap sides so that the variable terms are on the left hand side

g + 20 = -12

Subtract 20 from both sides

g = -12 - 20

Subtract 20 from -12 to get -32

g = -32
