-2v - 7 = -23

Add 7 to both sides.

-2v = - 16

Divide both sides by -2

v = 8

Note that division of two negative number produces a positive quotient.
ok I understand now
@Ms. Sue can you help me understand another question?
x/3 - 10 = -12
A. -6
B -66
C 6
D 66
x/3 - 10 = -12

Add 10 to both sides.

x/3 = -2

Multiply 3 by both sides

x = - 6
