107 = 7 -2 (7b - 1)

First, distribute -2 to all terms within the parenthesis

-2(7b - 1) = -14b + 2

107 = 7 -14b + 2

Combine like terms

107 = -14b (+7 + 2)

107 = -14b + 9

Isolate the b. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.

Subtract 9 from both sides

107 (-9) = -14b + 9 (-9)

107 - 9 = -14b

98 = -14b

Isolate the b. Divide -14 from both sides

(98)/-14 = (-14b)/-14

98/-14 = b

b = −7

-7 is your answer

hope this helps

Answer:

152

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find how many people like dogs but not cats. We can see that 152 people wrote that they like dogs. The other options were that they liked cats, both or neither. So we can assume that the 152 people that picked dogs do not like cats as there is no other option. So this is the answer. Also, you can create a venn diagram with this.

Hope this helped. Brainliest answer would be grateful

5 days ago, hope this still helps though! 

Alright 21 miles per hour. We know that there are 60 minutes in an hour. So this is basically saying 21 miles per 60 minutes. To find the rate for miles per minute, you divide 21 by 60 which is 0.35. 

In one minute the cyclist rides 0.35 miles
In two minutes the cyclist rides 0.7 miles
