−58 + 2(h − 29) − h = 41
h =

Answer 1

$- 58 + 2(h - 29) - h = 41$
now you must first distribute the 2 in the brackets. multiply 2 by h and (-29)

$- 58 + 2h -58 - h = 41$
now combine "like terms" (-58) with (-58) and 2h with (-h)

$-116 + h= 41$
now that h has no coefficient (no number in front) you can bring the -116 over to the other side to isolate the variable (h). remember when you bring a number over the equal sign the signs change so (-116) becomes 166.

$h = 116 + 41$
now add the two terms together

$h = 157$
the final result is 157

Answer 2

The answer is 157 You would also use PEMDAS
