\[ 12.5 - 4g = -2g - 3.5 \]

How do I work this out to get the answer?

Answer (3)

12.5 − 4 g = − 2 g − 3.5 12.5 + 3.5 = − 2 g + 4 g 16 = 2 g g = 2 16 ​ = 8 ​

12.5 - 4g = -2g - 3.5 12.5-2g=-3.5 (add 2g to both sides) -2g=-16 (takeaway -12.5 to both sides) g=8 (divide by -2 to both sides)

To solve the equation 12.5 − 4 g = − 2 g − 3.5 , we combined like terms and isolated the variable, yielding the solution g = 8 .
