D)One solution. b=5
Distribute 2 times b plus 2 times 3
2b+6
2b+6+2b=26
Combine like terms 4b+6=26
Subtract 6 from both sides
4b=20
Divide both sides by 4
b=5
Check by substituting 5 for b
2 (5+3)+2(5)=26
2(8) + 2(5)=26
16+10=26
26=26
Answer: $13
Step-by-step explanation:
<span>There are 2 pints of blue and 2 pints of yellow in the bucket.
To be 80% yellow, the new color will be (100%-80%=) 20% blue.
2 pints is 20% of (2 pints/0.20=) 10 pints.
With 4 pints in the bucket, to make 10 pints you should add
(10 pints-4 pints=) 6 more pints of yellow paint.
ANSWER: You should add 6 pints of yellow to the 4 pints of green in the bucket to make the new color that is 80% yellow.</span>
