Question

Solve the equation 7h-5(3h- 8) = -72

Answer 1

Answer: h=14

Step-by-step explanation:

7h-5(3h-8)=-72

7h-15h+40=-72 > I distributed the -5(3h-8) to get rid of parenthesis

-8h+40=-72 > I combined the like terms 7h-15h

-8h=-112 > I subtracted 40 from both sides

h=14 > I divided -8 from both sides
