Respuesta :

J would equal 38.

Subtract 7 from each side so you get j/-2 = -19

Then multiply each side by -2 to get j by itself and you get 38.

Answer:

j = 38

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{j}{-2} + 7 = -12[/tex]

subtract 7 on both sides:

[tex]\frac{j}{-2} + 7 - 7 = -12 - 7[/tex]

[tex]\frac{j}{-2} = -19[/tex]

multiply -2 on both sides:

[tex]\frac{j}{-2}[/tex] x -2 = -19 x -2

j = 38
