Question

0.4b+1.3=0.4(b-5) solve equation

Answer 1

Explanation:

At first sight this equation has 3 terms. Multiply all 3 of them by 10 to remove the fractions:

4b + 13 = 4(b - 5)

Carrying out the multiplication, we get:

4b + 13 = 4b - 20

This can never be true (13 is never equal to -20), so this equation has NO SOLUTION.
