Question

solve for j. -7j - 2 - 2j = 4 - 3j j =

Explanation:

Step1: Combine like terms on left

$-7j - 2j - 2 = -9j - 2$

Step2: Combine like terms on right

$4 - 3j$ remains, so equation: $-9j - 2 = 4 - 3j$

Step3: Add $9j$ to both sides

$-2 = 4 + 6j$

Step4: Subtract 4 from both sides

$-6 = 6j$

Step5: Divide by 6

$j = -1$

Answer:

$-1$
