Answer:
G. -5/2
Step-by-step explanation:
First we want to distribute the 6 into q and 3.
6q + 18 = 2(q + 4)
Next distribute the 2 into q and 4.
6q + 18 = 2q + 8
Now the variable needs to be on one side of the equation. Subtract 2q from both sides.
4q + 18 = 8
Isolate the variable. Subtract 18 from both sides.
4q = -10
Divide 4 on both sides.
q = -10/4
We can now simplify this even further. Divide -10/4 by 2/2
q = -5/2
0.2 is the answer I believe ^^
Below sea level would mean in the negatives
So I would say -3
