First: combine like terms You'll get: -15+4g=1+6g Next: You would subtract 4g on both sides to where you can still get all of your like terms together You'll get: -15=1+2g Then: You'll subtract 1 on both sides because you are still getting your like terms together You'll get: -16=2g Finally: You'll divide each side by 2, so your g would be alone You'll get: -8=g <That would be your answer
