-4(-5-b)=1/3(b+16) Multiply both sides by 3 to get rid of the fraction
-12(-5-b)=b+16 distribute the -12 to get rid of the parenthesis
60+12b=b+16 get the b on the left side and non b values to the right side
11b=-44 solve for b
b=-44/11 simplify the fraction
b=-4

3/5(t+18)=-3(2-t) multiply both sides by 5/3 to get rid of thefraction
t+18=-5(2-t) distribute the -5 to get rid of the parenthises
t+18=-10+5t get the t to the left side and non t values to the right
-4t=-28 solve for t
t=7

Solve for b: 16b = 12

Zina [86]

Answer:

b = 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi!!!

You want the value of B. To get that, we have to divide both sides by 16:

$\frac{16}{16}b =\frac{12}{16}$

$\frac{12}{16} = \frac{3}{4}$

Thus the answer to your question is $$\boxed{b = \frac{3}{4} }$ .

<u>Check:</u>

3/4 * 16 = 3 * 4 = 12.

12 = 12

So we are correct!!!
