Use inverse operations to solve each equation. Explain each step and identify the property to reach step

19 = h/3 - 8

Solve the equation. Explain each step and identify the property used to reach step.
0.6x + 0.8 = 1.4

19 = h/3 - 8

Add 8 to both sides.

27 = h/3

Multiply both sides by 3.

81 = h

Now you try the second problem. I'll be glad to check your answer.

Thank you!

0.6x + 0.8 = 1.4

Subtract 0.8 from both sides

0.6x = 0.6

Divide both sides by 0.6

x = 1

really -__-

sky is right thanks

umm chile anyways so.

Did you know?

Inverse operations can be used to solve equations by undoing the operations one step at a time. For example, in the equation 19 = h/3 - 8, we need to isolate the variable h. To do this, we can start by adding 8 to both sides of the equation, using the property of equality. This eliminates the -8 term on the right side. Next, we can multiply both sides of the equation by 3, using the property of multiplying both sides by the reciprocal. This cancels out the division of h by 3, leaving us with h = 57. In the equation 0.6x + 0.8 = 1.4, we need to solve for x. To isolate x, we can start by subtracting 0.8 from both sides of the equation, using the property of equality. This eliminates the 0.8 term on the left side. Next, we can divide both sides of the equation by 0.6, using the property of multiplying both sides by the reciprocal. This cancels out the multiplication of x by 0.6, leaving us with x = 1. Similarly, by using inverse operations, we can solve various types of equations.
