What's the solution to the equation −2h+16+4h=32
? Remember, you can check your answer by substituting your answer back into the original equation.
The solution to the equation −2h+16+4h=32 is h = 4.
To verify this solution, substituting h = 4 back into the original equation:
-2(4) + 16 + 4(4) = 32
-8 + 16 + 16 = 32
8 + 16 = 32
24 = 32
Since the equation is not true when h = 4, the solution is incorrect.
