How to solve the equation 8b - 12 = 5b

Mathematics
1 answer:
Virty [35]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

b = 4

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Pre-Algebra</u>

  • Order of Operations: BPEMDAS

<u>Algebra I</u>

  • Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>

8b - 12 = 5b

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>b</u></em>

  1. Subtract 5b on both sides:                    3b - 12 = 0
  2. Add 12 on both sides:                            3b = 12
  3. Divide 3 on both sides:                          b = 4

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in b to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute:                  8(4) - 12 = 5(4)
  2. Multiply:                      32 - 12 = 20
  3. Subtract:                     20 = 20

And we have our final answer!

To estimate his travel time, joe divides the distance, d, in miles by 5 less than his expected average speed, in miles per hour.
Elis [28]
<span>Distance is equal to rate times time, and time is the unknown in this instance. To find time, divide distance by rate. In this case, Joe wants to use a rate five miles per hour less than his planned speed of 75 miles per hour, which is 70. Dividing 310 miles by 70 miles per hour yields an expected travel time of 4.4 hours.</span>

Answer:

1733.28

Step-by-step explanation:

we want to find the surface area of the cylinder

We are given:

diameter = 12in

height = 40in

formula to find surface area of a cylinder: SA = 2πr^2 + 2πrh (where h = height and r = radius)

in order to find the SA of a cylinder we need to know the radius

we are given that the diameter is 12

we can acquire the measure of the radius by dividing the diameter by 2 ( this is because the radius is equal to half of the diameter )

so r = 12/2 = 6

now to find the surface area,

we simply plug in the values of the radius and height into the SA of a cylinder formula

SA = 2πr^2 + 2πrh

r = 6

h = 40

( note it says use 3.14 for π )

substitute values

SA = 2(3.14)(6)^2 + 2(3.14)(6)(40)

if you plug this into a calculator you get that the surface area is 1,733.28
