Question

solve for b
b-19=27

show how you got the answer

Answer 1

For $b-19=27$ value of b is 46 .

Step-by-step explanation:

An equation is a mathematical statement that two things are equal. It consists of two expressions, one on each side of an 'equals' sign.

An equation says that two things are equal.  It will have an equals sign "=" like this:  7 + 2  =  10 − 1  That equation says: what is on the left (7 + 2) is equal to what is on the right (10 − 1)  . So an equation is like a statement "this equals that" .

Here we have , b-19=27 or $b-19=27$ . Let's solve it step by step:

$b-19=27$

⇒ $b-19=27$

Adding 19 both sides

⇒ $(b-19)+19=27+19$

⇒ $b=27+19$

⇒ $b=46$

Answer 2

The value of b is 46.

Step-by-step explanation:

• The given expression is b-19 = 27
• To solve for b, keep b alone on side.

Therefore, to remove the -19 on the left side of the expression, you need add +19 on both sided of the expression.

The expression now becomes b-19+19 = 27+19

⇒ b = 27+19

Then, perform certain operations on the left side of the expression to get an exact value for b.

⇒ b = 46

The value of b is 46 and these are steps which must be followed for solving the given expression.
