408=1/2(b)(17) how do i solve this?

The correct answer should be 48.

Step-by-step explanation:

To figure this out, simply divide 408 by 17 first to get 24. Since we are doing half of b, we need to do the inverse and multiply 24 by 2 to get b. 24 x 2 is 48. The equation in its form would now be 408=1/2(48)(17).

1/2 x 48 = 24

24 x 17 = 408.

So therefore, 48 is the correct answer.

5 x 14?

im new, sorry if this is wrong.

step-by-step explanation:

you forgot the options, but i found them anyways, the correct answer is "john wilson believes that words and actions based on the intellect are superior to those based on emotions".

john wilson is depicted as an extremely intelligent man. the point of the excerpt is to make a sort of distinction between emotional and rational intelligence. he happens to have both attributes, but he clearly favors his intellectual gifts. at the same time, because of his religious background, he's a little bit conflicted with this and it makes him ashamed.

hope this !
