Can someone answer this please it is for a IXL and i need help answer my teacher will not help!!
so in
c = g + 14, you are given the value of c to be 20 , but g is still unknown, so ...
20 = g + 14
you want g all by itself in your equation, so let's get rid of the +14 by doing the invers,
that is, let's subtract 14 from both sides
20 - 14 = g + 14 - 14
6 = g
well, just look what we found!
I don't understand what you mean by "my teacher will not help"
