25.) what is the value q, if -7 = q + 2????

q = -9

Thankyou

ur welcome

To find the value of q in the equation -7 = q + 2, we need to isolate q.

The equation states that -7 is equal to q + 2. To isolate q, we need to get rid of the +2 on the right side of the equation.

To do this, we can subtract 2 from both sides of the equation. This maintains the equality of the equation.

So, let's subtract 2 from both sides:

-7 - 2 = q + 2 - 2

This simplifies to:

-9 = q

Therefore, q is equal to -9.
