h / 3 + 4 = - 13
h / 3 = - 17
h = - 51

-h/3 -4=13
-h/3 = 13 + 4 = 17
-h = 17 x 3 = 51
h = - 51

-h/3 -4=13

-h/3 - 4 + 4 = 13 + 4
- h/3 = 17
- h/3 (3) = 17(3) = 51
- h = 51
h = -51

-h/3-4 = 13
-h/3 = 17
-h = 51

h = -51

-h/3 - 4 = 13
-h/3 = 13 + 4
-h/3 = 17
-h = 17 x 3
-h = 51
h = -51

My guess is you are solving for h.

If so, add 4 to both sides of the problem.

This gives -h/3-4+4=13+4, which is -h/3=17

Then multiply both sides by 3.

This gives -h/3*3=17*3, which is -h=51

Reverse the signs, or divide by -1 to get your answer,
it is h = -51.

add 4 to both sides: -h/3 = 17. The nmultiply both sides by 3:
-h = 51, or h = -51

-h/3-4 = 13
-h/3 = 13 + 4
-h = 3*(13+4)
h = -3*(13+4)

Reverse the side, reverse the sign - just remember that

h = -3*(17)
h = -51

-h/3 -4=13
(-1/3)h - 4 = 13
(-1/3)h - 4 + 4 = 13 + 4
(-1/3)h = 17
(-3)(-1/3)h = 17(-3)
h = -51

Check:
-[(-51)/3] - 4 =13
17 - 4 = 13
13 = 13

-h/3-4=13
or -h/3=13+4=17
or -h=3*17=51
or h=-51 ans
