Question

solve for b.
\\( -dfrac{b}{0.2} + 1.3 = -6.7 \\)

Explanation:

Step1: Subtract 1.3 from both sides

$-\frac{b}{0.2} + 1.3 - 1.3 = -6.7 - 1.3$
$-\frac{b}{0.2} = -8$

Step2: Multiply both sides by 0.2

$-\frac{b}{0.2} \times 0.2 = -8 \times 0.2$
$-b = -1.6$

Step3: Multiply by -1 to solve for b

$-b \times (-1) = -1.6 \times (-1)$
$b = 1.6$

Answer:

$b = 1.6$
