Answer 2

Answer:

q=7

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

18 = 6q + -24

Reorder the terms:

18 = -24 + 6q

Solving

18 = -24 + 6q

Solving for variable 'q'.

Move all terms containing q to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-6q' to each side of the equation.

18 + -6q = -24 + 6q + -6q

Combine like terms: 6q + -6q = 0

18 + -6q = -24 + 0

18 + -6q = -24

Add '-18' to each side of the equation.

18 + -18 + -6q = -24 + -18

Combine like terms: 18 + -18 = 0

0 + -6q = -24 + -18

-6q = -24 + -18

Combine like terms: -24 + -18 = -42

-6q = -42

Divide each side by '-6'.

q = 7

Simplifying

q = 7
