Answer:

b = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

3 ( b + 5 ) = 4 ( 2b - 5 )

The first thing to do is to distribute, using the distributive property.

3 ( b + 5 ) = 4 ( 2b - 5 )

3b + 15 = 8b - 20

whichever side has the highest x value subtract or add the common numeral from.

3b + 15 = 8b - 20

+ 20 + 20

3b + 35 = 8b

then subtract or add the smaller value of x.

3b + 35 = 8b

- 3b - 3b

35 = 5b

Then we divide both sides by the number next to the variable

5b / 5

35 / 5

Now you have the final solution using those numbers

b = 7

9 - 10x = 2x + 1 - 8x
Furkat [3]

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

9 - 10x = 2x + 1 - 8x

9-10x=-6x+1

Subtract 9 from both sides:

9-10x-9=-6x+1-9

-10x=-6x-8

Add 6x to both sides:

-10x+6x=-6x-8+6x

-4x=-8

Divide both sides by -4:

\frac{-4x}{-4}=\frac{-8}{-4}

x=2
