Isn't this a subtraction problem, not a multiplication problem?
If John starts out with 20 fish and lets 6 go, he still has (20-6), or 14, fish.
Magnitude (how much) and multitude (how many), the two principal types of quantities, are further divided as mathematical and physical.
A = P(1 + r)^t is the interest formula
A = 1000(1 + .02)^t
A = 1000(1.02)^t
I'm not sure which of your two answers A or C have the t raised to a power but you need to choose the one with the t raised to a power.
-12+3b-1=-5-b
Combine like terms to get:
3b-13=-5-b
Add 13 to both sides:
3b= 8-b
Add b to both sides:
4b=8
Divide both sides by 4:
4b/4=8/4
b=2
Final answer
b=2
