Answer:

$b=1$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given rational equation is

$\frac{2b-5}{b-2} -2=\frac{3}{b+2}$

The Least Common Denominator is $(b+2)(b-2)$ .

Multiply each term in the equation by the LCD.

$(b+2)(b-2)\times \frac{2b-5}{b-2} -(b+2)(b-2)\times2=(b+2)(b-2)\times\frac{3}{b+2}$

Simplify;

$(b+2)\times \frac{2b-5}{1} -2(b+2)(b-2)=(b-2)\times\frac{3}{1}$

$(b+2)(2b-5) -2(b+2)(b-2)=3(b-2)$

Expand and group similar terms

$2b^2-5b+4b-10 -2(b^2-4)=3b-6$

$2b^2-5b+4b-10 -2b^2+8=3b-6$

$-b-2=3b-6$

$3b+b=-2+6$

$4b=4$

$b=1$

Answer:

x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

i) x - 11 + 1 < 15

x - 10 < 15

x < 10 + 15

x < 25

ii) x - 11 + 1 > 15

x - 10 > 15

x > 25

Therefore to compare (i) and (ii)

25 < x < 25

In any case, x = 0

What is the solution to this equation 5x -8(x + 5)= 6-3x

Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

no solution

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - 8(x + 5) = 6 - 3x

Remember to follow PEMDAS. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other.

First, distribute -8 to all terms within the parenthesis

-8(x + 5) = (-8)(x) + (-8)(5) = -8x - 40

5x - 8x - 40 = 6 - 3x

Isolate the variable (x). Add 3x & 40 to both sides

5x - 8x (+3x) - 40 (+40) = 6 (+40) - 3x (+3x)

5x - 8x + 3x = 6 + 40

Simplify. Combine like terms

(5x - 8x + 3x) = (6 + 40)

0 = 46 ; False 0 ≠ 46 ∴ no solution is your answer
