Ill give brainliest hurry plssss

Answer 1

Answer:

Just solve the equation for g. You do this by moving all the g terms to one said and then getting the g term alone on that side.

a. 4.3g + 8 = 2.3g + 16

4.3g - 2.3g + 8 = 2.3g - 2.3g + 16 (Subtract 2.3g from both sides)

2g + 8 - 8 = 16 - 8 (Subtract 8 from both sides)

2g / 2 = 8 / 2 (Divide 2 from both sides)

g = 4

b. In order to check if your value is correct, simply substitute it in for g in the original equation

4.3(4) + 8 = 2.3(4) + 16

17.2 + 8 = 9.2 + 16

25.2 = 25.2

Since both sides are equal then our solution is correct. If the check didn't work, then we did our calculations wrong and need to redo it.
