What’s m=2h+8 If solving for h?

Question

Show work pls! Need this ASAP, I have finals soon and I need help in lots so it would mean a lot if I can get an answer soon. Thanks a lot

Answer 1

2h + 8 = m

2h = m - 8

h = (m - 8)/2

h = m/2 - 4

Answer 2

Use inverse operation to rearrange the equation so that h is isolated on one side of the equal sign.

2h + 8 = m

Subtract 8 on both sides and simplify(You subtract because you eliminate the positve 8 on the left side of (=)).

2h + 8 - 8 = m - 8

2h = m - 8

In the next step divide both sides by 2 and simplify (2h = 2 x h, which means the operation that relates the 2 and h to each other is multiplication. In order to undo this you have to perform the inverse operation which is division)

2h/2 = (m - 8)/2

h = m/2 - 8/2

Simplify

h = (1/2)m - 4
