Answer:
h=8
Step-by-step explanation:[tex]\frac{-7}{8} h= -7\\\\(\frac{8}{-7} )(\frac{-7}{8} h)= -7 (\frac{8}{-7} )\\\\\frac{-56}{-56}h = \frac{56}{7}\\\\ h=\frac{56}{7}\\\\h=8[/tex]
the goal is to isolate the variable, get it all by itself. to do that in this problem, we have to move the -7/8 away from the h. we do this by multiplying by the reciprocal (the opposite of the fraction). The reciprocal of -7/8 is 8/-7. So multiply both sides by this and you will get h=8
