Well let's see.
The equation has exactly one solution.
Hope this helps.
Answer:
-8/5 = -1.6 (the smallest number here)
-5/8 = -0.625
your answer is A :)
-2 + 3b = 5b - 2(2b + 3) Distribute the -2 through the parentheses.
-2 + 3b = 5b - 4b - 6 Combine like terms
-2 + 3b = b - 6 Bring all "b's" to one side of the equation
-2 + 3b - b = b - b - 6 Combine like terms
-2 + 2b = -6 Bring the 2 to the right side of the equation
-2 + 2 + 2b = -6 + 2 Combine like terms
2b = -4 Isolate b by dividing both sides by 2
b = -4/2 = -2
Answer b = -2
Answer:
The reasoning is a deductive.
The reason is because the pattern of thought is logical, here, scientific methods ( i.e mathematically obtaining and comparing the density of the coin and the gold ) are used to support the conclusion.
Step-by-step explanation:
Gnerally the reasoning is a deductive.
The reason is because the pattern of thought is logical and scientific methods (eg mathematical equation (formula for density)) are applied to arrive at the conclusion.
