Answer:
b = -5/2
Step-by-step explanation:
- 6 (b + 3)= - 8 + 5
- 6b - 18= - 3
- 6b= - 3 + 18
- 6b= 15
b= - 15/6
b= - 5/2
Red is the positive integers and blue is the negative integer.
Answer:
x = 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
5[3(x + 4) − 2(1 − x)] − x − 15 = 14x + 55
5[3x + 12 - 2 + 2x] - x - 15 = 14x + 55
5[5x + 10] - x - 15 = 14x + 55
25x + 50 - x - 15 = 14x + 55 Now we subtract 14x from both sides:
25x + 50 - x - 15 - 14x = 14x - 14x + 55
10x + 50 - 15 = 55 Now we subtract 50, add 15 to both sides:
10x + 50 - 50 - 15 + 15 = 55 - 50 + 15
10x = 20
x = 2.
