@iGreen it was that simple.....opps

igreen · Answer

Yep..lol.

anonymous · Answer

so i just add -35+12 or the other way?

igreen · Answer

We want to get 'f' by itself, so we have to get rid of the 12 that's being subtracted by it. And to keep the equation balanced we have to do the opposite. And the opposite of subtraction is addition..so we add 12 to both sides.

igreen · Answer

Yes, just add -35 + 12.
