Solve for b 8 to the power of b-1=2 to the power of 4b+4 or if it is easier for you to understand this way 8^b-1=2^4b+4

b = - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

note that 8 = 2³, hence

( 2³)^(b - 1) =

since the bases on both sides of the equation are 2, equate the exponents

4b + 4 = 3b - 3 ( subtract 3b from both sides )

b + 4 = - 3 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

b = - 7

the answer is 0.5 mpm

step-by-step explanation:

the line goes half way through the square each time (which is 0.5 or half of course) so that would mean its 0.5 mpm.
