To start we need to put all the b's on the same side.

4b + 6 = 2 - b + 4
To move the b on the right side to the left side, add b to both sides.
4b + 6 + b = 2 - b + 4 + b

Simplify. 4b + b = 5b and -b + b = 0 so...
The equation is now: 5b + 6 = 2 + 4

Now move 6 to the right side so we can isolate b.
5b + 6 - 6 = 2 + 4 - 6
Simplify.
5b = 0
Solve for b.
b = 0/5
b = 0

4b+6= 2 - b + 4 (combine terms: 2 + 4 = 6)
4b + 6 = 6 - b (add the b to the other side to get rid of the negative)
5b + 6 = 6 (subtract 6 from one side to the other)
5b = 0 (divide by 5 on both sides)
b = 0

plug it back in

Lola's age is 14 more than 6 times Juan's age. The sum of their ages is 35. How old is each?

earnstyle [38]

35 - 14 = 21

3 * 6 = 18

3.5 * 6 = 21

Thus Juan is around the age of 3.5 and Lola is 31.5 I believe

Im not quite sure however I think this is the answer, I hope it helps ^-^

Jack recieved $600 for his birthday. If he saves it in a bank account with 8% interest compounded yearly, how much money will he

Gwar [14]

so 21 - 13, the money will be invested for 8 years.

$\bf ~~~~~~ \textit{Compound Interest Earned Amount} \\\\ A=P\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt} \quad \begin{cases} A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\ P=\textit{original amount deposited}\to &\$600\\ r=rate\to 8\%\to \frac{8}{100}\to &0.08\\ n= \begin{array}{llll} \textit{times it compounds per year}\\ \textit{yearly, thus once} \end{array}\to &1\\ t=years\to &8 \end{cases} \\\\\\ A=600\left(1+\frac{0.08}{1}\right)^{1\cdot 8}\implies A=600(1.08)^8\implies A\approx 1110.558126$
