6 + 2/5b = 12

What does “b” equal?

B = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Combine multiplied terms into a single fraction

6 + 2b/5 = 12

Subtract 6 from both sides

6 + 2b/5 (-6) = 12 (-6)   = 2b/5 = 6

Multiply all terms by the same value to eliminate fraction denominators

2b/5 ( x 5) = 6 (x 5)

Simplify

2b = 30

sites:

b. y = 4x - 2

step-by-step explanation:

to find a parallel equation to an equation, make sure both equations have the same slope but different y-intercepts.

y = 4x + 1

4 = slope

1 = y-intercept

y = 4x - 2

4 = slope

-2 = y-intercept

they both have the same slope but different y-intercepts, so, b. is the correct answer.

and to check your work, you can graph both equations. : )
