Answer:

Solve

-8 +5v=-33

So 5v=-33+8

(-8 became 8 because we brought it back to the other side to have the v 《5v》 alone and the numbers alone )

5v= -25

So v=-25/5

We simplify -25/5

v=-5

Answer:

v = -5

Explanation:

Step 1: Write out equation

-8 + 5v = -33

Step 2: Add 8 on both sides

-8 + 8 + 5v = -33 + 8

5v = -25

Step 3: Divide both sides by 5

5v/5 = -25/5

v = -5
