Step-by-step solution

9 steps

Here are the solutions to the problems:

1: Rewrite the expression using ÷\div symbol: 2bb\frac{2b}{b}

  1. Identify the division operation.

    A fraction bar represents division.

    2bb\frac{2b}{b}
  2. Rewrite the expression using the division symbol.

    2b÷b2b \div b

    The expression can also be simplified.

  3. Simplify the expression by canceling out bb.

    2b÷b=22b \div b = 2

    The question asks to rewrite using the ÷\div symbol, so the simplified form is not strictly required, but it's good practice to note.

    The expression rewritten using the ÷\div symbol is:

    2b÷b\boxed{\text{2b} \div \text{b}}

    2: Find the value of 6−4x6-4x when x=−3x=-3

  4. Substitute the given value of xx into the expression.

    6−4(−3)6 - 4(-3)
  5. Perform the multiplication.

    6−(−12)6 - (-12)
  6. Simplify the expression.

    Subtracting a negative number is equivalent to adding a positive number.

    6+12=186 + 12 = 18

    The value of the expression is:

    18\boxed{\text{18}}

    3: Add 2(3x−4)+4(x+2)2(3x-4)+4(x+2)

  7. Distribute the numbers outside the parentheses to the terms inside.

    2(3x)−2(4)+4(x)+4(2)2(3x) - 2(4) + 4(x) + 4(2) 6x−8+4x+86x - 8 + 4x + 8
  8. Combine like terms.

    Group the xx terms and the constant terms.

    (6x+4x)+(−8+8)(6x + 4x) + (-8 + 8)
  9. Perform the addition for each group.

    10x+010x + 0 10x10x

    The simplified expression is:

    10x\boxed{\text{10x}}
