Question

Solve the following equation for the value of q.
5 (34 – 10) – 5q = –15

Answer 1

Answer: q=27

Explanation:

Given

5(34-10)-5q=-15

Combine like term in the parentheses

5×24-5q=-15

Combine like term by multiplication

120-5q=-15

Subtract 120 on both sides (subtraction property of equality)

120-5q-120=-15-120

-5q=-135

Divide -5 on both sides (division property of equality)

-5/-5 q=-135/-5

q=27
