The value of b that Lois give Clark will be -7

  • Given the expression 2x + 7 - x = 4x + 2b – 3x - 3b.

  • First, we need to find the value of b from the expression.

Rearrange;

2x + 7 - x = 4x + 2b – 3x - 3b.

x + 7 = x + 2b - 3b

2b - 3b = 7

-b = 7

b = -7

Substitute b = -7 into the expression and find the value of x;

2x + 7 - x = 4x + 2(-7) – 3x - 3(-7)

x + 7 = 4x - 3x - 14 + 21

x + 7 = x + 7

Since for every x he picks, the left side is always 3 more than the right side, the equation becomes;

x + 7 = x + 3x + 7

x + 7 = 4x + 7

x - 4x = 0

-3x = 0

x = 0

Hence the value of b that Lois give Clark will be -7

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

m = -3

y = mx +b

y = -3x + b

Plugin x = -1 and y = 4

4 = -3*(-1) +b

4 = 3 + b

4-3 = b

b = 1

y = -3x + 1

Savatey [412]

Answer:

52 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

area of a square is l x w. all sides are equal so the l = w

A = 169 ft^2 so each side is the square root of 169 which is 13 ft

perimeter of the floor would be all four sides added or length of 1 side multiplied by 4 since they are all equal

Perimeter = 13ft × 4 = 52 ft

so:
