Question

Solve for b: 4b-11=1-2(3-b) A) 0 B) 14 C) 3 D) -16

Answer 1

Answer:

4b -11 = 1 -2(3-b) (use the distributive property on -2(3-b))

4b -11 = 1 -6 +2b ( combine like terms on the right side of the = sign)

4b -11 = -5 +2b  (subtract 2b from both sides)

2b -11 = -5 (add 11 to both sides)

2b = 6 (divide each side by 2)

b= 3 ( so, your answer is C)

Answer 2

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

4b-11=1-2(3-b)

4b-11=1-6+2b

4b-11=-5+2b

4b=6+2b

2b=6

b=3

Your answer is C
