What steps are used to isolate the variable in the equation? h/7 + 2 = 11 (1 point) Multiply hbar 7 and 11 by 7. Then subtract 2 Subtract 11 from both sides of the equationThen multiply by 7 Subtract 2 from both sides of the equationThen multiply both sides by 7 Add 2 to both sides of the equation. Then divide by 7.

1 answer

To isolate the variable \( h \) in the equation \( \frac{h}{7} + 2 = 11 \), you can follow these steps:

  1. Subtract 2 from both sides of the equation: \[ \frac{h}{7} + 2 - 2 = 11 - 2 \] This simplifies to: \[ \frac{h}{7} = 9 \]

  2. Multiply both sides by 7: \[ 7 \cdot \frac{h}{7} = 9 \cdot 7 \] This simplifies to: \[ h = 63 \]

Therefore, the correct sequence from the options you provided is: Add 2 to both sides of the equation. Then divide by 7.
