Answer:
V = (improper fraction) 3/2 or (mixed number) 1 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
3/2-7/4 V =-9/8
First, let's isolate -7/4 V by subtracting 3/2 on both sides of the equal sign. We'll end up with this:
-7/4 V = -9/8 - 3/2
Now, we have to make -3/2 have the same denominator as -9/8 and -3/4 = -12/8 so we'll write that down:
-7/4 V = -9/8 - 12/8
Simplify:
-7/4 V = -21/8
We're going to isolate V by dividing both sides by -7/4:
(-7/4 V)/(-7/4) = (-21/8)/(-7/4)
Multiplying -21/8 and -(4/7) is the same thing as dividing -21/8 by -7/4:
V = -21/8 * -4/7
V = 3/2
or
V = 1 1/2
Hope this helps! :)
