Question

-18 = 5v+7 simplify your answer as much as possible what is the solve for v

Answer 1

v = - 5

Explanation:

Given

- 18 = 5v + 7 ( subtract 7 from both sides )

- 25 = 5v ( divide both sides by 5 )

- 5 = v

Answer 2

The value of v in -18 = 5v+7 is -5.

Solution:

From question given that the equation is

-18 = 5v + 7

On subtracting 7 both sides, the above equation becomes

-18 - 7 = 5v + 7 - 7

-18 - 7 = 5v

Taking -1 as a common term in left hand side,

-(18+7) = 5v

On simplifying the above equation,

-(25) = 5v

Open the bracket,

-25 = 5v

Rewrite the above equation,

5v = -25

On dividing by 5 on both sides

v = -5

Hence on Simplifying the given equation -18 = 5v + 7, we get value of v is -5.
