Question

Solve equation 2(4b-6)=4(3b-7)

Answer 1

Answer:

$\boxed {b = 4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for the value of $b$:

$2(4b - 6) = 4(3b - 7)$

-Use Distributive Property:

$2(4b - 6) = 4(3b - 7)$

$8b - 12 = 12b - 28$

-Take $12b$ and subtract it from $8b$:

$8b - 12 - 12b = 12b - 12b - 28$

$-4b - 12 = -28$

-Add $12$ to both sides:

$-4b - 12 + 12 = -28 + 12$

$-4b = -16$

-Divide both sides by $-4$:

$\frac{-4b}{-4} = \frac{-16}{-4}$

$\boxed {b = 4}$

So. therefore, the value of $b$ is $4$.

Answer 2

Answer:

2(4b - 6) = 4(3b - 7)

This is

8b - 12 = 12b - 28

Now,

16 = 4b

This means that b = 4 :)
