PLEASE HELP I ALSO NEED TO SHOW WORK

Answer 1

h=3

Explanation:

1 Remove parentheses.

6h+8-3h-2=156h+8−3h−2=15

2 Simplify 6h+8-3h-26h+8−3h−2 to 3h+63h+6.

3h+6=153h+6=15

3 Subtract 66 from both sides.

3h=15-63h=15−6

4 Simplify 15-615−6 to 99.

3h=93h=9

5 Divide both sides by 33.

h=\frac{9}{3}h=

Answer 2

`h=3`

Explanation:

So we have the equation:

`(6h+8)-(3h+2)=15`

First, let's distribute the negative:

`(6h+8)+(-3h-2)=15`

Combine like terms:

`(6h-3h)+(8-2)=15`

Subtract or add:

`3h+6=15`

Subtract 6 from both sides:

`3h=9`

Divide both sides by 3:

`h=3`

And we're done!
