Question

B / 4 + 1 equals -4

Answer 1

We can find the value of B from the equation:

`(B)/(4)+1=-4`

By following these steps:

1. subtract 1 from both sides of the equation

`\begin{gathered} (B)/(4)+1-1=-4-1 \\ (B)/(4)=-5 \end{gathered}`

2. multiply both sides by 4:

`\begin{gathered} (B)/(4)=-5 \\ 4*(B)/(4)=-5*4 \\ B*(4)/(4)=-5*4 \\ B=-20 \end{gathered}`

Then, the solution of the equations is B= -20
