Answer 1

V=-5 I believe that’s the answer

Answer 2

Hi there! :)

Answer:

`\huge\boxed{v = -5}`

-8v + 3(v - 3) = 16

Distribute the 3:

-8v + 3(v) + 3(-3) = 16

-8v + 3v - 9 = 16

Combine like terms and simplify:

-5v - 9 = 16

-5v - 9 + 9 = 16 + 9

-5v = 25

Divide both sides by -5:

-5v/(-5) = 25/(-5)

v = -5.
