Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
4b²+20b+25=0
Divide everything by 4
b²+5b+ 6.25=0
use the quadratic formula
x= (-b+ or - √b²-4ac) /2a
x= (-5 + or - √5²-4*1*6.25) /2(1)
x= -5/2 so
in this case, b= -5/2
So first you distribute the 5 to the x and the +2 and get
5x+10=3(x+8)
then you distribute the 3 to the other x and the +8 and get
5x+10=3x+24
subtract 3x from both sides
2x+10=24
subtract 10 from both sides and get
2x=14
divide both sides by 2 and get
x=7
1.20 - .90 = .30
.30 / 5 = .06 (Same as 30 / 5)
