Q:

-3-4(-4-b)=-4b-27 solve this please

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:b=-5Step-by-step explanation:Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.βˆ’3βˆ’4(βˆ’4βˆ’b)=βˆ’4bβˆ’27βˆ’3+(βˆ’4)(βˆ’4)+(βˆ’4)(βˆ’b)=βˆ’4b βˆ’2(Distribute)βˆ’3+16+4b=βˆ’4b+βˆ’27(4b)+(βˆ’3+16)=βˆ’4bβˆ’27(Combine Like Terms)4b+13=βˆ’4bβˆ’274b+13=βˆ’4bβˆ’27Step 2: Add 4b to both sides.4b+13+4b=βˆ’4bβˆ’27+4b8b+13=βˆ’27Step 3: Subtract 13 from both sides.8b+13βˆ’13=βˆ’27βˆ’138b=βˆ’40Step 4: Divide both sides by 8.8b/8 =βˆ’40/8b=βˆ’5
