Step 1. Add 9 to both sides
\(-8(1+4h)=-17+9\)
Step 2. Simplify \(-17+9\) to \(-8\)
\(-8(1+4h)=-8\)
Step 3. Divide both sides by \(-8\)
\(1+4h=1\)
Step 4. Cancel 1 on both sides
\(4h=0\)
Step 5. Divide both sides by 4
\(h=0\)
Done! :) Hope this helps! :)
To check \(-9-8(1+4h)=-17\) follow these steps below:
Step 1. Let h = 0
\(-9-8*(1+4*0)=-17\)
Step 2. Simplify 4 0 to 0
\(-9-8*(1+0)=-17\)
Step 3. Simplify 1 + 0 to 1
\(-9-8*1=-17\)
Step 4. Simplify 8 1 to 8
\(-9-8=-17\)
Step 5. Simplify -9 -8 to -17
\(-17=-17\)
Done! :)
