Question

10g-8g+8-4=16 how does this break down in steps

Answer 1

The value of g is equal to 6.

First, we need to simplify this.

We have two constants, and two terms with a variable on the same side.

We can change 4 terms to 2 by combining them, keeping in mind the variable.

10g - 8g + 8 - 4

Subtract 8g from 10g.

10g - 8g = 2g

Subtract 4 from 8.

8 - 4 = 4

Now we're left with 2g + 4 = 16

Now, we need to isolate the variable.

We can do this by subtracting 4 from both sides.

2g = 12

Finally, in order to fully isolate the variable, we need to divide it by 2.

To do that without affecting the value of it, we need to divide the other side by 2 as well.

2g/2 = g

12/2 = 6

g = 6

Answer 2

Answer: g=6 and 6=g *The answer must be have positive sign.*

Step-by-step explanation:

add by the numbers.

10g-8g=2g

2g+8-4=16

add/subtract numbers.

8-4=4

2g+4=16

subtract by 4 both sides of an equation.

2g+4-4=16-4

simplify.

16-4=12

2g=12

divide by 2 both sides of an equation.

2g/2=12/2

simplify by equation.

12/2=6

12/6=2

2*6=12

6*2=12

g=6 and 6=g

Hope this helps!

Thanks!

Have a great day!
