Full solution

Q. Solve for vv.\newline6=3(v+6)6 = -3(v + 6)\newlinev=v = _____
  1. Distribute 3-3: Simplify the equation by distributing 3-3 into (v+6)(v + 6).3(v+6)=3v18-3(v + 6) = -3v - 186=3v186 = -3v - 18
  2. Isolate 3v-3v: Isolate 3v-3v by adding 1818 to both sides.\newline6+18=3v18+186 + 18 = -3v - 18 + 18\newline24=3v24 = -3v
  3. Solve for vv: Solve for vv by dividing both sides by 3-3.\newline243=3v3\frac{24}{-3} = \frac{-3v}{-3}\newlinev=8v = -8
