multiply by 8 on both sides
(20)8 - 8(4b/8) = (18)8
160 - 4b = 144
subtract 160 on both sides
160 - 160 - 4b = 144 - 160
-4b = -16
divide by -4 on both sides
-4b/-4 = -16/-4
b = 4
The answer is A...

Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
Evaluate x/4 + 6 (x - 12) where x = 12:
x/4 + 6 (x - 12) = 12/4 + 6 (12 - 12)
Hint: | Reduce 12/4 to lowest terms. Start by finding the GCD of 12 and 4.
The gcd of 12 and 4 is 4, so 12/4 = (4×3)/(4×1) = 4/4×3 = 3:
3 + 6 (12 - 12)
Hint: | Look for the difference of two identical terms.
12 - 12 = 0:
6×0 + 3
Hint: | Any number times zero is zero.
0×6 = 0:
0 + 3
Hint: | Simplify the expression.
Write 3 + 0 as 3:
