You can put this solution on YOUR website!
You first want all the numbers with variables on one side and all the regular numbers on the other.
\n" ); document.write( "So, your equation should look like this:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"7g-5g=-8-14\"$
\n" ); document.write( "*REMEMBER
\n" ); document.write( "When moving numbers across an equal sign, you must always use the opposite of the number*
\n" ); document.write( "Then you simplify the equation
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2g=-22\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"g=-11\"$
\n" ); document.write( "*CHECK*
\n" ); document.write( "Plug -11 back in for g
\n" ); document.write( " $\"7%28-11%29%2B14-5%28-11%29=-8\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"-77%2B14%2B55=-8\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"-8=-8\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Since the equation is true, your answer is correct
\n" ); document.write( "Your final answer is $\"g=-11\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Hope this helps! \n" ); document.write( "
