Q. Solve for

f

.

\newline

-6 = -(f + -8) + -6

\newline

f =

_____

Remove double negatives: Simplify the equation by removing the double negatives. $-6 = -(f + 8) + -6$
Combine like terms: Combine like terms on the right side. $\newline$ $-6 = -f - 8 - 6$
Simplify right side: Simplify the right side further. $-6 = -f - 14$
Isolate $f$ : Isolate $f$ by adding $14$ to both sides. $\newline$ $-6 + 14 = -f$
Simplify left side: Simplify the left side. $8 = -f$
Multiply by $-1$ : Multiply both sides by $-1$ to solve for $f$ . $8 \times -1 = f$
