Question

Solve the equation 3.7g+6=1.7g+12.
a. Find the value of g.
b. Explain how you can check that the value you found for g is correct. If your check does not​ work, does that mean that your result is​ incorrect? Explain.

can you please help as soon as possible?

Answer 1

Answer:

g=3

Step-by-step explanation:

3.7g+6=1.7g+12

        -6          -6

3.7g=1.7g+6

-1.7g  -1.7g

2g=6

--------

2      2

g=3

Checking:

3.7g+6=1.7g+12

3.7(3)+6=1.7(3)+12

11.1+6=5.1+12

17.1=17.1

Since they are equal together that means that g is equal to 3.

Sorry if i took a while it was kinda hard to type out all the stufff

Answer 2

Answer:

a. g = 3

b. Get g alone. on one side and get everything else on the other side. divide both sides by the coefficient to have  g = answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

REMEMBER: What you do to one side must be done to the other as well.

Step one: Move the variable (g) to one side by subtracting it out of one side of the equation.

3.7g+6=1.7g+12

-1.7g      -1.7g

2g+6   =12

Step two: Isolate the variable by removing all other numbers from that side.

2g+6    =12

    -6      -6

2g        = 6

Step three: divide both sides by the variable's coefficient (number next to the variable, in this case it is 2.)

2g = 6

/3     /3

g = 3

Answer: g = 3

Hope this helps! variables can be hard to handle at first.
