Question

Solve for v. 19v – 18 = 16 + 17v

Answer 1

Answer:

v= 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with the given equation.

19v – 18 = 16 + 17v

Move -18 to the other side, and swap it's sign.

19v = 16 + 18 + 17v

Move 17v to the other side and swap it's sign.

19v - 17v = 16 + 18

Combine like terms.

2v = 34

Divide by 2v.

v = 17

Answer 2

Answer:

v = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

19v - 18 = 16 + 17v ( subtract 17v from both sides )

2v - 18 = 16 ( add 18 to both sides )

2v = 34 ( divide both sides by 2 )

v = 17
