Solve for b. -11b+7 = 40−11b+7=40

This equation is false

Step-by-step explanation:

Well,

-11b + 7 = 4 - 11b + 7 = 40

combine like terms

-11b + 7 = -11b + 3 = 40

Communicative property

-3 to both sides

-11b + 4 = -11b = 40

-4 to both sides

-11b = -11b = 36

+11b to both sides

0 = 36

0 is not equal to 36 meaning that this equation is false.

Thus,

the equation given is false.

the ratio of white tiles to blue tiles is 48: 16. the ratio in it's simplest form is 3: 1.

step-by-step explanation:

ratio: take the first number and add a colon next to it, then add the second number after that. make sure the ratio order matches up with the written problem!

simplest form: we can simplify the ratio 48 : 16 by dividing both terms by the greatest common factor (gcf).

the gcf of 48 and 16 is 16.

divide both terms by 16:

48 ÷ 16 = 3

16 ÷ 16 = 1

reducing to simplest form:

48 : 16 = 3 : 1
