5b-8=4b+1
What is b?
Answer by ankor@dixie-net.com(22740) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
5b - 8 = 4b + 1
add 8 to both sides
5b = 4b + 1 = 8
5b = 4b + 9
subtract 4b from both sides
5b - 4b = 9
b = 9

Check this in the original equation, replace b with 9:
5(9) - 8 = 4(9) + 1
45 - 8 = 36 + 1
