Question

What is 3 = -2v − v

v=

Answer 1

First combine like terms on the right side.

The v terms can be combined to get -3v.

So we have 3 = -3v.

Now divide both sides by -3 to get -1 = v.

Answer 2

-1 =v

Explanation:

3 = -2v − v

Combine like terms

3 = -3v

Divide each side by -3

3/-3 = -3v/-3

-1 =v
