Question

Use a related equation that has the variable on one side. Then simplify the other side.


h – 8 = 32


A. h = 1/4

B. h = 4

C. h = 24

D. h = 40

Answer 1

You need to use inverse operations to get the variable alone on one side of the equal sign. So here we would add 8 to both sides. :) What's 32 + 8?

Answer 2

40

Answer 3

Yup! There you go :) D.
