too complicated for me to answr, sorry. xP
OpenStudy (anonymous):
@crabbyoldgamer So do you know how to solve this equation...?
OpenStudy (smilie2015):
multiply -2/3 with (12b+6)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so it'd come out as (-2/3 x 12b)+(-2/3x6)? can the unlike terms still multiply?
OpenStudy (smilie2015):
yes

(12b)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh
OpenStudy (smilie2015):
than
you will get
8-2b= -24b/3 -12/3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
taking notes hold on, you can continue if you want
OpenStudy (smilie2015):
if we simplify than -24/3 = 8
-12/3 = 4

so now you will get what ???
OpenStudy (anonymous):
4?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I have a question though
OpenStudy (smilie2015):
8-2b = -8b-4
got this step ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Did you only just multiply the numerator by the two whole numbers and keep the denominator the same

?
OpenStudy (smilie2015):
look we had -2/3 (12b+6)
multiply
-2/3* 12b + (-2/3)*6
u can simplify in this step also...
-2*4b +(-4)
got it?
