Answer:

$Exact form:b=-\frac{8}{11}\\Decimal form: b=-0.72727272727272727272$

Step-by-step explanation:

$-4(b+3)-12=2b-16+5b$

$-4b-12-12=2b+5b$

$-4b-24=7b-16$

$-4b=7b+8$

<span>Initial number of the people that belong to a certain social website is 412. It is growing at a rate of 5% every month. It means that every month the number of people is growing 1.05 times. We can calculate how many of them will there be in 9 months: 412 * 1.05^9 = 412 * 1.55 = 638.6. When we round to the nearest whole number: there will be 369 members.</span>
