Answer:

b=2

Step-by-step explanation:

-12 + 3b -1 = -5 - b

-13 + 3b = -5 - b

+13         = +13

_____________

3b = 8 - b

+b =     +b

_________

4b = 8

/4  =  /4  <---divide 8 by 4

_______________

b = 2

-12+3b-1=-5-b
Combine like terms to get:
3b-13=-5-b
Add 13 to both sides:
3b= 8-b
Add b to both sides:
4b=8
Divide both sides by 4:
4b/4=8/4
b=2

Final answer
b=2

Can you please show me how to calculate the volume for each prism?
larisa [96]

Answer:

1st: volume = long x wide x high = 7 x [sqrt(25^2-7^2)] x 4 = 7 x 24 x 4 = 672

2nd: volume = area of base(circle) x high = pi x 9^2 x 8 = ~ 2035.8

3rd = volume = area of base(triangle) x high = [sqrt(3)/4] x 14^2 x 20 = ~1697.4

Pete has an old playstation that he bought for $400.
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

1 year= $280

Step-by-step explanation:

30% of 400= 0.3 * 400= 120

400-120= 280

after one year the playstation cost 280

30% of 280= 0.3 * 280= 84

280-84= 196

after 2 years it cost $196

multiply the number by 0.3 to get 30% of the total
