Question

Solve for b. b 0.6=−1 what is the answer?

Answer 1

Answer:

value of b is, -1.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation:

$b+0.6=1$

Subtraction property of equality states that you subtract the same number to both sides of an equation.

Subtract 0.6 to both sides of an equation [1]

$b+0.6-0.6 = -1-0.6$

Simplify:

$b = -1-0.6$

⇒$b =-1.6$

Therefore, the value of b is, -1.6

Answer 2

I assume the expression is written this way,
                                b(0.6) = -1
or this can be better written as,
                                 0.6b = -1
To answer the question, we divide both sides of the equation by 0.6 and that will give us an answer of,
                               b = -1/0.6 = -5/3
