Question

problem 19: in square hjkr, find b. after you enter your answer press go. b =

Explanation:

Step1: Use the property of a square

In a square, all sides are equal. So, \(3b + 2=2b + 7\).

Step2: Solve the equation for \(b\)

Subtract \(2b\) from both sides: \(3b-2b + 2=2b-2b + 7\), which simplifies to \(b + 2=7\).
Then subtract \(2\) from both sides: \(b+2 - 2=7 - 2\).

Answer:

\(b = 5\)
