108 = -2(-5 - 7b) What does b equal?

Mathematics

Answer:

b = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

108 = -2(-5 - 7b)

Distribute -2 to the terms inside the parenthesis:

108 = 10 + 14b

Subtract 10 from both sides of the equation to isolate 14b:

108 - 10 = 10 + 14b - 10

98 = 14b

Divide 14 on both sides of the equation to solve for b:

\frac{98}{14}  = \frac{14b}{14}

7 = b

What is 7/10-1/2 for subtracting fractions
Charra [1.4K]
I'm guessing you mean to find the answer. So find a common denominator, which is 10. You can leave 7/10 alone. Now multiply by 5 on both the numerator and denominator of 1/2. It would be 5/10. Now subtract 7/10-5/10. The answer is 2/10. It can be simplified to 1/5. The answer now would be: 1/5
I hope this helps. :-)

4/5 x = 8 i need to show my work​
Anika [276]

Answer:

x=10

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming you needed to solve for x. Here is how you do it:

first, divide both sides by 4/5 to get x by itself.

this will give you x=8 divided by 4/5.

To solve 8 divided by 4/5 you do keep switch flip.

keep the first number (8), switch the sign (division to multiplication), and flip the other fraction (4/5 to 5/4) then you can just multiply across the top (8/1 *5/4) which equals 40/4. This simplified is 10
