First you cross multiply.
2*(b-4)=6b
Then distribute the 2.
2b-8=6b
Minus 2b from each side.
-8=4b
Divide each side by 4.
-2=b
So -2 is your answer.

Answer:
y = -3x^2 -9x +30
Step-by-step explanation:
When a polynomial has a zero at x=p, it has a factor of (x -p). The factors of your quadratic are ...
f(x) = (x +5)(x -2)
At the point x=3, the value of this product is ...
f(3) = (3 +5)(3 -2) = (8)(1) = 8
In order for that value to be -24, it needs to be multiplied by a scale factor of -3. The quadratic you want is ...
y = -3(x +5)(x -2)
y = -3x^2 -9x +30 . . . . . standard form
Standard form of an equation is ax + by = c, which in this case is 5x + 3y = 14, or B.
Answer:
A = (5s^2t - 9st) (3t + 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
(5s^2 - 9s) (3t^2 + t)
= 15s2t^2 + 5s^2t - 27st^2 - 9st
= 5s2t (3t + 1) - 9st (3t + 1)
= ( 5s^2t - 9st) (3t+1)
