Subtract 1/2 mv^2 from both sides. Can you figure it out now?

no. can you write it out?
Thanks

If you subtract \frac{mv^2}{2} from both sides, you then have
E-\frac{mv^2}{2}=mgh
You only need to isolate h now, there is a leading coefficient of "mg" on h. Divide both sides by this coefficient to isolate h.
