Answer:

b=7

Step-by-step explanation:

5a(2b – 3a) = 40

Let a=4

5*4(2b-3*4) = 40

20(2b-12) = 40

Divide each side by 20

20/20 (2b-12) = 40/20

2b-12 =2

Add 12 to each side

2b-12+12 = 2+12

2b = 14

Divide by 2

2b/2 = 14/2

b = 7

Y=2x-2 and 4x+2y=12. solve the equation PLEASE SHOW WORK​
diamong [38]
<h3>The solution as an ordered pair is (x,y) = (2,2)</h3><h3>x = 2 and y = 2 pair up together.</h3>

===============================

Work Shown:

4x+2y = 12

4x+2( y ) = 12

4x+2( 2x-2 ) = 12 ... replace y with 2x-2

4x+2( 2x ) + 2( -2 ) = 12 ... distribution rule

4x+4x-4 = 12

8x-4 = 12

8x-4+4 = 12+4 ... add 4 to both sides

8x = 16

8x/8 = 16/8 ... divide both sides by 8

x = 2 is the first part of the answer

Use x = 2 to find y

y = 2x-2

y = 2(2)-2 ... replace x with 2

y = 4-2

y = 2 is the second part of the answer
