You can put this solution on YOUR website! b÷17+4=-4
Assuming there are no parentheses, follow the Order of Operations.
Do the division first. +4 = -4
Subtract 4 from each side = -8
Now multiply each side by 17 to get rid of the pesky fraction
b = -136
IF there had been parentheses around (17+4), you would do that first.
b / 21 = -4
Multiply each side by 21
b = -84
