In the context of computer programming, "8 b" typically stands for "8 bits." A bit is the smallest unit of data in a computer and can have a value of either 0 or 1. When 8 bits are grouped together, they form a byte, which is a common unit of storage in computing. Therefore, "8 b" is shorthand for "8 bits."

Solve one of the formulas for A, then substitute that into the other formula to solve for B, then substitute the solution for B into one of the formulas to solve for A. Here is how: Givens: A+B=8 A-B=9 So: If A+B=8 then A=8-B Next, substitute this into the other formula... A-B=9 (8-B)-B=9 (-B) - B = 1 (-2B) = 1 B= (- 1/2) Next, substitute the solution for B into one of the formulas to solve for A.... A+B=8 A+ (-1/2) = 8 A = 8 and 1/2 So... B= (- 1/2) A = 8 and 1/2
Given:a + b = 2a - b = 8Then:a = b + 8∴ (b + 8) + b = 2∴ 2b = -6∴ b = -3∴ a = 5
(b + 8)(b - 1)
5b = 8 b = 8/5 or 1.6
b - 8
