v=-6 is the right answer. First you had to subtract by 7 from both sides of equation, and it gave us, $7-6v-7=-5-8v-7$ . And then simplify, and it gave us, $-6v=-8v-12$ . You can also add by 8v from both sides of equation, and it gave us, $-6v+8v=-8v-12+8v$ . Next simplify, and it gave us, $2v=-12$ . Then you divide by 2 from both sides of equation, and it gave us, $\frac{2v}{2}=\frac{-12}{2}$ . And finally simplify, and it gave us the answer is v=-6 is the right answer. Hope this helps! And thank you for posting your question at here on brainly, and have a great day. -Charlie

You score 64/75 on your first test. After your second test, your teacher tells you your test average is 88%

gregori [183]

First you need to divide 64 by 75 and then multiply by 100 which is 85.3% which then you need to find the average of the 2 which will be (85.3+x)/2=88 where x= the value of the second test.

Then you will need to isolate the x with the following steps:

multiply each side by 2 making it 85.3+x=176
Subtract 85.3 from each side
this results in 90.7
