You always start by simplifying.
6b-49=2<span>(</span>b-3) becomes 6b-49=2b-6
From there you can group the b's together by subtracting 2b from both sides, leaving you with 4b-49=-6
Now you can get the b's alone by adding 49 (to cancel out -49) to both sides, giving you 4b=43, You're still trying to get b by itself, so what you'll do is divide both sides by 4, giving you b=10.75
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First I took the original price of the shirt (46.50) since it is going one third off I divided it by 3 (46.50/3=15.50)
I took away the one third I divided from it (46.50-15.50=31)
I got 31 dollars as my final answer.
Now Karim needs to buy the shirt for $31.
Answer: (8, 45)?
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
a =2.2
Step-by-step explanation:
Since this is a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem
a^2+b^2 = c^2
where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse
a^2+2^2 = 3^2
a^2 +4 = 9
a^2 = 9-4
a^2 = 5
Taking the square root of each side
sqrt(a^2) = sqrt(5)
a = sqrt(5)
a=2.236067977
To the nearest tenth
a =2.2
