Question

-6h + 2(4h + 3) = 1

Answer 1

Answer:

h = -2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

-6h + 2(4h + 3) = 1

-6h + 2*4h + 2*3 = 1

-6h + 8h + 6 = 1   {combine like terms}

        2h + 6 = 1

              2h = 1 - 6

              2h = -5

               h = -5/2

               h = -2.5

Answer 2

Answer:

h = -2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Apply the distributed property: -6h + 8h + 6 = 1
2. Combine like terms: 2h + 6 = 1
3. Subtract 6 from each side, so it now looks like this: 2h = -5
4. Divide each side by 2 to cancel out the 2 next to h. It should now look like this: h = -2.5

I hope this helps!
