Sagot :
Step-by-step explanation:
could it be that the equation is rather
-5 = (-8 + v)/3
?
that is a huge difference ...
to solve such an equation we keep transforming it (every change we make we have to do on both sides of the equation to keep the equality), until we have only the variable on one side, and everything else (which is then the solution) on the other side.
1st step : we get rid of the "/3" by multiplying both sides by 3.
that gives us
-5×3 = ((-8 + v)/3)×3 via the multiplication property.
2nd step : we simplify
-15 = -8 + v
3rd step : we get rid of the -8 on the side of the variable by adding 8 to both sides.
that gives us
-15 + 8 = -8 + 8 + v via the addition property.
4th step : we combine like terms (or simplify, if we can use it a second time) :
-7 = 0 + v
-7 = v
that's it.
