Solve for j.

j − 40 = –28

1 answer

To solve for j, we need to isolate j on one side of the equation.

To isolate j, we can add 40 to both sides of the equation.

j - 40 + 40 = -28 + 40

On the left side of the equation, the -40 and +40 will cancel out, leaving us with:

j = 12

Therefore, the value of j is 12.
