Answer:
<h2><u>b = 2 or b = -2</u></h2>
Explanation:
|4b + 4| = |2b + 8|
<em>Solve absolute value</em>
|4b + 4| = |2b + 8|
Either 4b + 4 = 2b + 8 or 4b + 4 = −(2b + 8)
4b + 4 = 2b + 8 <em>(Possibility 1)</em>
4b + 4 − 2b = 2b + 8 − 2b <em>(Subtract 2b from both sides)</em>
2b + 4 = 8
2b + 4 − 4 = 8 − 4 <em>(Subtract 4 from both sides)</em>
2b = 4
2b / 2 = 4 / 2 <em>(Divide both sides by 2)</em>
b = 2
4b + 4 = −(2b + 8) <em>(Possibility 2)</em>
4b + 4 = −2b − 8 <em>(Simplify both sides of the equation)</em>
4b + 4 + 2b = −2b − 8 + 2b <em>(Add 2b to both sides)</em>
6b + 4 = −8
6b + 4 − 4 = −8 − 4 <em>(Subtract 4 from both sides)</em>
6b = −12
6b / 6 = -12 / 6 <em>(Divide both sides by 6)</em>
b = -2
<h2><u>b = 2 or b = -2</u></h2>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
-32x+45-7(2x-9)=101
parenthesis first
-32x+45-14x+63=101
just combine like terms
-46x+108=101
minus 108 both sides
-46x= -7
answer is x 7 over 46
