Find the quotient. simplify your answer. b + 3 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the above equation.

We replace the division sign by multiplication and reciprocated the second term

Multiplying both fractions:

Cancelling b from numerator and denominator.

So, answer is:

ANSWER

EXPLANATION

The given expression is

We multiply the first fraction by the multiplicative inverse of the second fraction.

We now cancel out the common factors to get:

Therefore simplified form is:

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions
