B= the square root of 65
Formula: a^2= c*2-b^2
a^2= 81-16= 65
Once you find the square root of 65, thats your answer, but here they want you to keep it as 65.
Hope this helps!
-2(x + 5) = 2 |use distributive property: a(b + c) = ab + ac
-2x - 10 = 2 |add 10 to both sides
-2x = 12 |divide both sides by (-2)
x = -6
