15-b=4b-5(5-3)
Multiply the bracket by -5
(-5)(5)=-25
(-5)(-3)=15
15-b=4b-25+15
15-b=4b-10
Move 15 to the other side
Sign changes from +15 to -15
15-15-b=4b-10-15
-b=4b-25
Move 4b to the other side.
-b-4b=4b-4b-25
-b-4b=-25
-5b=-25
divide both sides by -5
-5b/-5=-25/-5
Answer: b=5
In the given situation, the ratio of the perimeters of two rectangles is 4 to 7. The perimeter of the larger rectangle is 42 inches.Now, let's find the perimeter of the smaller.Let's solve for the answerRatio and formula:=> 4 : 7 = X = 42, where x is the unknown perimeter of the smaller rectangle=> 4 * 42 = 168 / 7 = 24Thus the answer is letter D. 24 inches is the parameter of smaller rectangle.<span>

Well first you have to make the denominators equal by finding a common denominator. in this case 21, but whatever you do to the bottom you do to the top. so 1/3 times 7/7 equals 7/21 and 1/7 times 3/3 equals 3/21.
so how many 7/21 cups of ice cream can you make from 3/21 i think about none but remember i could be wrong
