Question

solve for h.
2 - 4h - 4 = 6 - 5h
h =

Explanation:

Step1: Simplify the left - hand side

Combine like terms in $2 - 4h-4$.
$2-4=-2$, so the equation becomes $-2 - 4h=6 - 5h$.

Step2: Add $5h$ to both sides

To get all $h$ terms on one side.
$-2 - 4h+5h=6 - 5h+5h$, which simplifies to $-2 + h=6$.

Step3: Add 2 to both sides

To isolate $h$.
$-2 + h+2=6+2$.

Answer:

$h = 8$
