Question

3.) -8(8+4b)=20-4b what is x?

Answer 1

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

`\Huge\boxed{B=-3}`

Step 1 : Simplify both sides of the equation :

`-8(8+4b)=20-4b`

`(-8)(8)+(-8)(4b)=20+-4b` (By Distributing)

`-64+-32b=20+-4b`

`-32b-64=-4b+20`

Step 2 : Add
`4b` to both sides :

`-32b-64+4b=-4b+20+4b`

`-28b-64=20`

Step 3 : Add
`64` to both sides :

`-28b-64+64=20+64`

`-28b=84`

Step 4 : Divide both sides by
`-28` :

`(-28b)/(-28)=(84)/(-28)`

`b=-3`

That should be you're final answer!
