Multiply both sides by 6
(b-4)/6*6= b-4
b/2*6= 3b
Rewrite the equation
b-4= 3b
Subtract b from both sides
-4=2b
Divide both sides by 2
-2=b
Final answer: b=-2
Step-by-step explanation:
maybe you can try to measure each of the ways maybe and you can get the equation
<span>If a=-2 and b=1, then
3a-2b
= 3(-2) -2(1)
= -6 -2
= -8</span>
4 pound of oats twice a day= 8 pounds of oats each day per horse. He has 4 horses so 4 horses times 8 pounds of oats is 32. You multiply 32 pounds times the three days he has to feed which is 96 pounds.
