Question

solve this one-variable linear equation
7h-5(3h-8)=-72

Answer 1

Answer:

h=14

Step-by-step explanation:

7h-5(3h-8)=-72

Combine Like Terms

-8h+40=-72

Subtract 40 on both sides

-8h+40  -40 = -72  -40

Then we get

-8h/8=-112/8 so we divide by 8

h=14

Answer 2

H =14

Steps
7h-5(3h-8)=-72 remove parentheses
7h-15h+40=-72 collect like terms
-8h+40=-72 move constant to right
-8h=-72-40
-8h=-112 divide both sides by 8
-8h/-8 = -112/-8
H=14
