Question

To solve -3 = -19 + d/5, what steps would you use?

19:
Divide by, subtract, multiply by, or add?
5:
Divide by, subtract, multiply by, or add?

Answer 1

1)Add 19

2)Multiply by 5

Explanation:

`-3=-19+(d)/(5)`

Adding 19 to both sides.

`-3+19=-19+19+(d)/(5)\\\\16=(d)/(5)`

Multiplying 5 to both sides.

`16*5=(d)/(5)* 5\\80=d\\\\`

∴
`d=80`
