v-4(4-v) = -2(2v-1) --------------------------->working eqn
Distribute:
v-16%2B4v=-4v%2B2
Put on the same side similar terms:
v%2B4v%2B4v=2%2B16 ---> 9v=18 ---> cross%289%29%2Av%2Fcross%289%29=cross%2818%292%2Fcross%289%29
v=2
In doubt? go back working eqn:
2-4%284-2%29=-2%282%2A2-1%29
2-4%282%29=-2%284-1%29
2-8=-2%283%29
-6=-6
Thank you,

v-4(4-v)=-2(2v-1)
v-16+4v=-4v+2
5v-16=-4v+2
5v+4v=16+2
9v=18
v=18/9
v=2 answer.
