Question

What is the value of v in the equation-12 = 2 + 5v + 2v

Answer 1

Explanation:

Answer 2

v =
`(10)/(7)`

Explanation:

1. Switch sides. 2 + 5v + 2v = 12

2. Add similar elements. 2 + 7v = 12

3. Subtract 2 from both sides. 2 + 7v - 2 = 12 - 2

4. Simplify. 7v = 10

5. Divide both sides by 7.
`(7v)/(7)` =
`(10)/(7)`

6. Simplify. v =
`(10)/(7)`
