Answer:

b=-19

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that one of the solutions is x=-4/5

That is a solution to x. So if we plug in (-4/5) into the x in the equation, then it should equal 0.

5(-4/5)^2+b(4/5)+12=0

Now, just solve for b.

5(16/25)+b(4/5)+12=0

(16/5)+(4/5)b+12=0

(76/5)+(4/5)b=0

(4/5)b=-(76/5)

b=-19

How can estimating be helpful
nadezda [96]
It helps you narrow down to a smaller answer for example there is pi, (3.14159265359) and there is more and more to that number. It is now estimated to 3.14 because it would be almost impossible to work with pi if it wasn't estimated

the product means multiply....decreased means subtract
the product of a number and 20 decreased by 11..
20x - 11 <== ur expression

the difference means subtract 
the difference of 30 and a number, multiplied by 2

Answer: (4,-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

8y = -40

(divide by 8)

y = -5

(plug it in to one of the equations)

3x + 6*-5 = -18

3x + -30 = -18

3x = 12

x = 4
