5 (-6-3d) = 3 (8+7d) (if there is no solution, type in ''no solution'') d = Answer

d = - 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

5 ( - 6 - 3d) = 3 (8 + 7d)

- 30 - 15d = 24 + 21d

- 15d - 21d = 24 + 30

- 36d = 54

- d = 54/36

- d = 1.5

d = - 1.5

In this question, you're solving for d.

Solve for d:

5 (-6 - 3d) = 3 (8+7d)

Use the distributive property:

-30 - 15d = 3 (8+7d)

-30 - 15d = 24 + 21d

Add 30 to both sides:

-15d = 54 + 21d

Subtract 21d from both sides

-36d = 54

Divide both sides by - 36

d = - 3/2

Answer:

d = - 3/2 or - 1.5
