20 = -d + 6
-d + 6 = 20

A) -17
B) 7
C) 14
D) -14

I got -14 but when I check my work I get -8. So is it -14 or just 14 or is it a different answer.

Please help and explain!!

Respuesta :

ok so rearrange things so that it says 6-d=20, then subtract six from each side to get -d=20-6, then subtract 6 from 20 to get -d=-14, then multiply both sides by -1 to get rid of the negative sign in front of the d since a variable cannot be a negative thus making your answer -14 or letter D. :) ❤❤❤❤

hope this helps

Put all the components into the right place, and you will get

6-d=20,

then you subtract six from each side to get,

-d=20-6,

and again subtract 6 from 20.

Now you will get,

-14 or option D.


You were correct when you checked your answer.
