Find the value of B if A=8^2/2 + 26
B=

Answer 1

To find the value of \( B \), we first need to calculate \( A \) using the given equation:

\[
A = \frac{8^2}{2} + 26
\]

1. Calculate \( 8^2 \):
\[
8^2 = 64
\]

2. Now substitute \( 64 \) back into the equation:
\[
A = \frac{64}{2} + 26
\]

3. Calculate \( \frac{64}{2} \):
\[
\frac{64}{2} = 32
\]

4. Now combine with \( 26 \):
\[
A = 32 + 26 = 58
\]

Now we have \( A = 58 \).

Assuming that \( B \) might be linked directly to \( A \), though without additional information about how \( B \) is defined relative to \( A \), we cannot calculate \( B \) directly.

If \( B \) is defined to be equal to \( A \) or if there are specific instructions regarding the calculation of \( B \), please provide that context.

If \( B \) is indeed equal to \( A \), then we have:

\[
B = A = 58
\]

Otherwise, please clarify how to compute \( B \).
