Question

How do you solve `-11= 6+ f`?

Answer 1

Isolate the variable to get `f=-17`.

Explanation:

To solve an equation with one variable, we'd want to isolate it on one side of the equal sign.

In `-11=6+f`, `f` is our variable, so we'd want it to be by itself. We can subtract `6` from both sides of the equation.

`-11=6+f`
`-6`, and `-6`
`-17=f`.
