Question

Which literal equation is equivalent to a = 4b + 5?
b = a + 5 / 4
b = a - 5 / 4
b = 4a - 5
b = 5a + 4

Answer 1

b

Answer 2

i meant the second choice :P

Answer 3

b=5a+4 because they're the same numbers but in different order.

Answer 4

@j2lie i do not think those are equal...
you need to subtract 5 from both sides, and divide the whole thing by 4, and you get the equivalent. the equation you chose, would not be equal to the original equation.
