What move can you make to both sides of the equation to get rid of the −2h on the right, so that all the h terms are on the left side of the equation?

Question

1
5 (12h+8)
10
2
=
−2h+6

12h+8
2
=
−2h+6

6h + 4
=
−2h+6

Subtract 2h from both sides

Multiply each side by 2h

Divide each side by 2h

Add 2h to each side

Answer 1

To get rid of the \(-2h\) on the right side of the equation and move all \(h\) terms to the left side, you should add \(2h\) to both sides of the equation. This will help consolidate all the \(h\) terms on the left side.

So, the correct move is:

Add \(2h\) to each side.
