Question 1 (1 point) which of the equations listed below is equivalent to 48=-8(3b/4+2) a. 48= -6b+2 b. 48= -6b-16 c. -384= -6b-16 d. -384= 3b+16

OPTION B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation you can find an equivalent equation by simplifying it.

You need to remember the multiplication of signs:

Now you can apply the Distributive property:

Simplifying the equation, you get:

You can observe that this equivalent equation matches with the equation provided in option B.

step-by-step explanation:

first, eliminate the parenthesis:

problem:

f(x) = - 2/3x + 5; f(5/2)

substitute 5/2 in for x:

f(5/2) = -2/3(5/2) + 5

simplify the right side:

f(5/2) = -5/3 + 5

f(5/2) = 10/3

f(5/2) = 10/3

i hope this !
