B. 12 - b = 12.5 b =

C. -0.1 = -10c c =

Answer 1

Answer: A.)0 B.)8/9 or 8.9 repeating C.) 1/100 or 0.01

Step-by-step explanation: Hope this helps in your studies!

Answer 2

$\\ \tt\hookrightarrow a/3=-5a$

$\\ \tt\hookrightarrow -a/3=5a$

$\\ \tt\hookrightarrow a=-a/15$

• So no solution except 0

#b

$\\ \tt\hookrightarrow 12-b=12.5b$

$\\ \tt\hookrightarrow 12.5b+b=12$

$\\ \tt\hookrightarrow (1+12.5)b=12$

$\\ \tt\hookrightarrow 13.5b=12$

$\\ \tt\hookrightarrow b=0.8888$

#c

$\\ \tt\hookrightarrow -0.1=-10c^2$

$\\ \tt\hookrightarrow c^2=0.01$

$\\ \tt\hookrightarrow c=0.1$
