Question

5/8(16d + 24) = 6(d - 1) + 1

Answer 1

Answer:

d=-5

Step-by-step explanation:

5/8(16+24)=6(d-1)+1

distribute 5/8 into (16d+24) and 6 into (d-1)

10d+15=6d-6

subtract 6d on both sides

10d-6d+15=-6

combine like terms

4d+14=-6

subtract 14 on both sides

4d=-20

divide both sides by 4

$\frac{4d}{4} =\frac{-20}{4}$

d=-5
