Question

Given the equation:e + 7 = 15,Solve for e.

Answer 1

The equation to solve:

$e+7=15$

To solve for e, we have to isolate e on one side and put all the numbers on another side.

Looking at the equation, we can subtract 7 from both the sides. Thus, e is isolated and we have an answer. Shown below:

$\begin{gathered} e+7=15 \\ -7\text{ = 15 - 7} \\ --------- \\ e=15-7 \\ e=8 \end{gathered}$

Thus, the value of e is 8
