Question

For all real numbers b and c such that the product of c and 3 is b, which of the following expressions represents the sum of c and 3 in terms of b ?

A. b +3

B. 3b +3

C. 3(b + 3)

D. None of the above

Answer 1

IN this question, it is given that

For all real numbers b and c such that the product of c and 3 is b.

That is

`3c=b`

Solving for c by dividing both sides by 3

`c = (b)/(3)`

And we have to find an expression , that represents the sum of c and 3 in terms of b. And sum of c and 3 is

`= c+3`

Substituting the value of c

`= (b)/(3) +3`

So the correct option is the last option .
