Question

May i get some help with an Equation

Answer 1

Steps that you have to follow to solve for \(\sf b_1\)

1. Multiply both sides by 2 and simplify.
2. Divide both sides by h and simplify
3. Subtract both sides by \(\sf b_2\) and simplify

And you're done. Tell me what you'll get :)

Answer 2

I'm stuck in between A and C

Answer 3

Alright. One of them is right, which is a good sign :)

let's do it step by step.
What will you get if you do the 1st step?

Answer 4

Wait i think i actually got the answer C

Answer 5

are you sure?

Answer 6

Hmm thats always a trick question

Answer 7

to make sure you're not guessing ;)

Answer 8

Well when i put everything together that i have on my paper i get C but im thinking i did it wrong at this moment

Answer 9

it would not hurt anyone if you post your solution here so that I can check it, would it? or we can work it together so that you'll see which step you switched. The decision is yours ^_^

Answer 10

Well I assume you get the step 1 right. Try redoing, step 2 then step 3 :)

Answer 11

Okay i see where i might've messed up at i will post my solution but right now i am most Certain its A

Answer 12

why A ?

Answer 13

2A = h (b1+b2) <= Times by 2
2A = h (b1+b2)
/(b1+b2)
=
2A/(b1=b2) = h
?

Answer 14

1) Multiply both sides by 2
2\[(A)=2 \frac{ h }{ 2 } (b_{1}+b_{2})\rightarrow 2A=h (b _{1} + b _{2})\]
2) divide both sides by (b1+b2)

Answer 15

SO A is Correct @Data_LG2

Answer 16

Steps that you have to follow to solve for \(\sf b_1\)

1. Multiply both sides by 2 and simplify.
\(\sf \color{red}{\text{2. Divide both sides by h and simplify}}\)
3. Subtract both sides by \(\sf b_2\) and simplify


Step 2 is wrong. I said, divide both sides by \(\sf h\) not \(\sf (b_1+b_2)\) because if you did it, you are solving for h not b1.
