Question

-8 + b divided by 38 = -9

Answer 1

Answer:

b = -334

Step-by-step explanation:

(-8+b) / 38 = -9

Multiply each side by 38

(-8+b) / 38 * 38 = -9*38

-8 + b = -342

Add 8 to each side

-8+b+8 = -342+8

b = -334

Answer 2

Answer:

$b=-334$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{-8 + b}{38} =-9$

Multiply both sides by 38.

$\frac{-8 + b}{38}(38) =-9(38)$

$-8+b=-342$

Add 8 on both sides.

$-8+b+8=-342+8$

$b=-334$
