Q. The hanger image below represents a balanced equation.Find the value of d that makes the equation true.d=□
Write Equation: Look at the hanger image and write down the equation it represents.Let's say the left side has 3d and the right side has d+10.So the equation is 3d=d+10.
Subtract and Simplify: Subtract d from both sides to get the d terms on one side.3d−d=d+10−dThis simplifies to 2d=10.
Divide to Solve: Divide both sides by 2 to solve for d. 22d=210This gives us d=5.
