3b+2(b-1) = 8
3b+2b-2 = 8
5b = 8+2
5b = 10
b = 2
Answer:
0.009 is a decimal and 0.9/100 or 0.9% is the percentage for 9/1000.
Step-by-step explanation:
? What do you mean? Like is there multiple answers to choose from?
{x,y} = {-2,3}
[1] 2x + 4y = 8
[2] x - 3y = -11
4y + 2x = 8
-3y + x = -11
Solve equation for the variable x
[2] x = 3y - 11
Plug this in for variable x in equation [1]
[1] 2•(3y-11) + 4y = 8
[1] 10y = 30
Solve equation [1] for the variable y
[1] 10y = 30
[1] y = 3
By now we know this much :
x = 3y-11
y = 3
Use the y value to solve for x
x = 3(3)-11 = -2
Solution :
{x,y} = {-2,3}

The keyword is "sum" which tells you x, y, and z are being added. One half of the sum means that the sum of the three numbers is going to be divided by 2.
x + y + z
