Question

2.5h-15=4h

Answer 1

Anyone?

Answer 2

We want to isolate the variable first.

Answer 3

Rearrange and solve for h.

Answer 4

Thus we get rid of the 2.5h by subtracting 2.5h from both sides.

Answer 5

2.5h-15=4h
-> 2.5h-15-2.5h=4h-2.5h

Answer 6

->0-15=1.5h
->-15=1.5h
Divide both sides by 1.5
h=-10

Answer 12

You can't subtract -2.5h because that doesn't cancel the variables out on both sides

Answer 13

Isn't that what you said ?

Answer 14

let me show you what happens
2.5h-15=4h
2.5h-15+2.5h=4h+2.5h
->5h-15=6.5h

Answer 15

We want to subtract 2.5h from both sides, because that gets rid of it on the left side.
