Hello!
To do this we need to combine like terms, meaning combine the terms that have the same variables.
b is one variable that can be combined:
-2b - 6 + 3b - 2
b - 6 - 2
Now, combine the digits:
b - 8
Hope this helped!
Hey don't cry . I'm not good at math either but try to take a deep breath.
Answer:
Let x be the number of silver medals.
As there were two more gold medals than silver ones, gold medals are x+2
We also know that the number of bronze medals was 4 less than the sum of gold and silver, so if there are x + 2 of gold and x of silver, there are x+x+2-4 of bronze.
Now, we can do an equation, as we know there were a total of 28 medals:
x + x + 2 + x + x + 2 - 4 = 28
And we isolate x:
4x = 28
x = 28/4 = 7
There were 7 silver medals, so there were 9 gold ones (7-2) and 12 of bronze (9+7-4).
Answer:
133.04ft²
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of a circle is:

We are given the diameter. The radius of the given circle is 6. Note that the diameter is twice the radius.
Using 3.14 for pi:

The area is appropriately 133.04ft².
