Answer:

-3(b - 2) = -18

-3b + 6 = -18

-3b = -18-6

-3b = -24

-3b/-3 = -24/-3

b = 8

Divide both sides by 3
If there is two negtives it makes a positive
Simplify
Add 2 to both sides
And simplify again

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1. = -18/-3

2. 18/3

3. b - 2 = 6

4. b = 6+2

Answer : b = 8

Circumference of a 4" circle?

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

4π ≈ 12.5663706144

Step-by-step explanation:

The circumference of a circle is 2πr, or 2*pi*radius

Suppose the circle has a diameter of 4 inches. A diameter is 2x the radius, of which we are looking for, therefore:

4÷2=2 inches (radius length)

Now that we have the radius, let us substitute to find the circumference:

2πr=

2π2=

4π≈

What is the difference? StartFraction 2 x + 5 Over x squared minus 3 x EndFraction minus StartFraction 3 x + 5 Over x cubed minu

inn [45]

Answer:

$\frac{(x+5)(x+2)}{x(x-3)(x+3)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

$\frac{2x+5}{x^{2} -3x} -\frac{3x+5}{x^{3} -9x} -\frac{x+1}{x^{2}-9}$

First, we need to factor each denominator

$\frac{2x+5}{x(x-3)} -\frac{3x+5}{x(x+3)(x-3)} -\frac{x+1}{(x-3)(x+3)}$

So, the least common factor (LCF) is $x(x-3)(x+3)$ , because they are the factors that repeats.

Now, we diviide the LCF by each denominator, to then multiply it by each numerator.

$\frac{(x+3)(2x+5)-3x-5-x(x+1)}{x(x-3)(x+3)} =\frac{2x^{2}+5x+6x+15-3x-5-x^{2}-x }{x(x-3)(x+3)}\\\frac{x^{2}+7x+10}{x(x-3)(x+3)}$

Then, we factor the numerator, to do so, we need to find two numbers which product is 10 and which sum is 7.

$\frac{(x+5)(x+2)}{x(x-3)(x+3)}$

Therefore, the expression is equivalent to

$\frac{(x+5)(x+2)}{x(x-3)(x+3)}$
