Answer 2

Answer

Answer 3

Simplifying
2q + -4 = 26

Reorder the terms:
-4 + 2q = 26

Solving
-4 + 2q = 26

Solving for variable 'q'.

Move all terms containing q to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '4' to each side of the equation.
-4 + 4 + 2q = 26 + 4

Combine like terms: -4 + 4 = 0
0 + 2q = 26 + 4
2q = 26 + 4

Combine like terms: 26 + 4 = 30
2q = 30
Divide each side by '2'.
q = 15

Simplifying
q = 15
