Answer:
d=−1
Step-by-step explanation:
−3(d−2)−4=5
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
−3(d−2)−4=5
(−3)(d)+(−3)(−2)+−4=5(Distribute)
−3d+6+−4=5
(−3d)+(6+−4)=5(Combine Like Terms)
−3d+2=5
−3d+2=5
Step 2: Subtract 2 from both sides.
−3d+2−2=5−2
−3d=3
Step 3: Divide both sides by -3.
−3d
−3
=
3
−3
d=−1
