Answer:

b = -2 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the variable, b. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.

First, subtract 5 from both sides:

-3b + 5 (-5) = 13 (-5)

-3b = 13 - 5

-3b = 8

Next, divide -3 from both sides:

(-3b)/-3 = (8)/-3

b = -8/3

b = -2 2/3

Answer:

${x}^{2} + 3x$

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of shaded region = Area of external rectangle - Area of internal rectangle

$= 4x(x + 2) - x(3x + 5) \\ = 4 {x}^{2} + 8x - 3 {x}^{2} - 5x \\ = 4 {x}^{2} - 3 {x}^{2} + 8x - 5x \\ = {x}^{2} + 3x \\$

Let the width of the rectangle be x inches.

Therefore, length of the rectangle = (x + 3) inches

Area of rectangle

$=(x + 3)\times x\\=x^2 + 3x\\$

Width of rectangle = 4 inches

Length of rectangle = 4 + 3 = 7 inches

Area of rectangle = 7*4 = 28 square inches.
