<u>Equation/Question:</u>

Solve for b. 3(b + -2)-8=-5 what is the answer?​

<u>Answer/Steps to answer:</u>

1.Simplify  b+-2 to b−2.

3(b−2)−8=−5

2. Add 8 to both sides.

3(b-2)=-5+8

3. Simplify  -5+8  to  3.

3(b-2)=3

4. Divide both sides by 3.

b-2=1

5. Add 2 to both sides.

b=1+2

6. Simplify  1+2 to 3.

b=3

Whats 0 divide 0 i really want to know
Gelneren [198K]

Answer

N/A

Step-by-step explanation:

lets take a step into our imaginations, ok?

So when you divide, you're basically splitting the numerator into as many parts as the denominator.

imagine you have a chocolate bar, and it has 6 pieces and you want to split it evenly between your 3 friends.

you split it into three equal parts to get 2 pieces per person.

When you divide 0 by 0, your splitting 0 chocolate bars into 0 equal portions, which is why this problem isn't solvable.

Solve 4x + 1 = 3 – 2x
romanna [79]

Answer:

x = 1/3

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Pre-Algebra</u>

  • Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
  • Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

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

4x + 1 = 3 - 2x

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

  1. Add 2x on both sides:                    6x + 1 = 3
  2. Subtract 1 on both sides:                6x = 2
  3. Divide 6 on both sides:                   x = 1/3

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

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

  1. Substitute:                    4(1/3) + 1 = 3 - 2(1/3)
  2. Multiply:                        4/3 + 1 = 3 - 2/3
  3. Add/Subtract:               7/3 = 7/3

Here we see that 7/3 does indeed equal 7/3.

∴ x = 1/3 is a solution of the equation.

marusya05 [52]

Let's compare!

Taylor ran 57 + 48 mins total. Sum would be 105 mins.

Mark ran 62 + 53 mins total. Sum would be 115 mins.

Clearly, the two sums are different when we compare them using subtraction.

115 - 105 = 10. Mark ran 10 mins longer than Taylor.
