Eli is 17 years old because 17-4=13
and 17+13=30
Step-by-step explanation:
3 - 2(b - 2) = 2 - 7b
To solve this first distribute -2 to (b - 2)
3 + (-2b + (-2) x -2) = 2 - 7b
when we simplify this it becomes:
3 + (-2b + 4) = 2 - 7b
We take (-2b + 4) out of the parenthesis:
3 - 2b + 4 = 2 - 7b
Now simplify again.
7 - 2b = 2 - 7b
Now send all the b's to one side and constants on the other.
7 - 2 = -7b +2b
5 = 5b
b = 1
Answer:
b=8
Step-by-step explanation:
7b-7-8b=-15
Combine like terms
-b-7=-15
Add 7 on both sides
-b=-15+7
-b=-8
Divide by -1
b = 8
The measures of the angles don't change when you translate a figure, because the entire figure is moving as a whole. Imagine having a paper parallelogram, moving it around and flipping it over. Not even dilations would change these angles (for reasons that can be pretty easily visualed but not really proven until geometry)
