Answer 1

Hi there!

Okay, so we are solving for s. This is pretty simple. Just follow the steps below!

-10s = -8 - 9s

Step 1) Simplify both sides of the equation.

-10s = -8 + - 9s
-10s = -9s - 8

Step 2) Add 9s to both sides.

-10s + 9s = -9s - 8 + 9s
-s = -8

Step 3) Divide both sides by -1.

-s/-1 = -8/-1
s = 8

Our final answer is s = 8.

Hope this helps!
