Question

Solve for h.
15.3 + 1 h =1.3- 1 h

Answer 1

Hey there!☺

`Answer:\boxed{h=-7}`

`Explanation:`

`15.3+1h=1.3-1h`

In our first step, we will simplify both sides in the equation:

`15.3+h=1.3+-h\\h+15.3=-h+1.3`

Now add h to both sides:

`h+15.3+h=-h+1.3+h\\2h+15.3=1.3`

In step 3, divide both sides by 2:

`(2h)/(2)=(-14)/(2)`

Simplify -14/2:

`(-14)/(2)=-7\\ h=-7`

h=-7 is your answer.

Hope this helps!☺

Answer 2

-7 = h

Explanation:

15.3 + 1h = 1.3 - 1h

+1h +1h

15.3 + 2h = 1.3

Remember what you do to one side you MUST do to the other.

15.3 + 2h = 1.3

-15.3 -15.3

2h = -14

Now to isolate the variable you divide both sides by 2 to get, h = -7

Hope that helps and have a great day!
