Solve for b in the following equation: A=12(a+b) (1 point)

Responses

b=2A−a

b=1/2A−a

b=2A+a

b=1/2 A+a

1 answer

To solve for \( b \) in the equation \( A = 12(a + b) \), we can start by isolating \( b \).

  1. Divide both sides by 12: \[ \frac{A}{12} = a + b \]

  2. Subtract \( a \) from both sides to isolate \( b \): \[ b = \frac{A}{12} - a \]

None of the provided responses match \( \frac{A}{12} - a \). However, it's possible that there was a mistake in the equation or the responses provided.

If you're looking for one of the given options, please double-check the equation or provide clarification.
