Answer: Hi!
First, we should combine like terms:
4b + 5b = 8b − 1 +3b + 15 =
9b = 11b + 14
Now, we should subtract 11b from both sides.
-2b = 14
Now, we should divide both sides by -2.
b = -7
Hope this helps!
I'm not certain how exactly this question is supposed to be answered.
If it wants a ratio, Paul and Jennifer's speeds would be in a ratio of 3:4.
It also could be Paul types 20 words per minute slower than Jennifer.
It could be Paul types 33% slower than Jennifer.
Another answer could be Paul's typing speed is 3/4ths of Jennifer's typing speed.

Answer:
280.6 
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>find the length of each side:</u>
you're only given h = 9 m
the formula for h is
, where a is a side length of the hexagon
plug h in:

a ≈ 10.392 m
<u>now find the area of a triangle:</u>
1/2 (10.392)(9) = 46.764 
multiply that by 6 and you get 280.584 ≈ 280.6 
you can also use the regular hexagon area formula instead of finding the individual area and multiplying by 6: 
Your answer is 160. Sorry about that answer above I laughed reading it hahaha.
