Question

What steps do I do to answer this

Answer 1

Your equation is: 5h + 4 = 10h + 8

First subtract 5h from both sides:(So that variable terms stays in one side only)

=> 5h + 4 -5h = 10h + 8 -5h

=> 4 = 5h + 8

Now subtract 8 from both sides:(So constant term stays in the opposite side of variable terms)

=> 4 - 8 = 5h + 8 - 8

=> -4 = 5h

Now divide both sides by 5:(division by coefficient of variable)

=> -4/5 = 5h/5

=> -4/5 = h

=> h = -4/5 = -0.8
