Type the correct answer in each box. use numerals instead of words. if necessary, use / for the fraction bars. consider the equation below.
-2(bx-5)=16
the value of x in terms of b is
the value of x when b is 3 is

x = -3/b

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

-2(bx-5)=16

Divide each side by -2

-2(bx-5)/-2=16/-2

bx-5 = -8

Add 5 to each side

bx-5+5 = -8+5

bx = -3

Divide each side by b

bx/b = -3/b

x = -3/b

If b = 3

x = -3/3

x = -1

-3/b; -1

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Solve the equation

B. Value when b = 3

answer: -8.2562234e+13

because linear equations are a lot simpler than quadratics equations, and linear equations formula is a lot easier to memorize. that's why i think they're harder.
