5x6=5x4+5xb

It is hard to know what "x" indicates. Typically it is an unknown, so online "*" is used to indicate multiplication. However, if it is "5x to the 6th power," it would be indicated as "5x^6". Online "^" is used to indicate an exponent. If both the number and the unknown are raised to the power, it should be written "(5x)^6".

Clarify your equation and what your question is.

Do you mean:

(5*6) = (5*4) + 5b (?) If so,

30 = 20 + 5b

10 = 5b

2 = b

To solve the equation 5x6 = 5x4 + 5xb, we need to find the value of xb.

To do this, we'll isolate xb by moving the terms around and simplifying the equation step by step.

Step 1: Simplify the right-hand side (RHS):
5x4 = 20 (multiply 5 and 4)
So, the equation becomes 5x6 = 20 + 5xb.

Step 2: Simplify the left-hand side (LHS):
5x6 = 30 (multiply 5 and 6).

Now we have the equation 30 = 20 + 5xb.

Step 3: Solve for xb:
To find the value of xb, we need to isolate it on one side of the equation. Let's start by subtracting 20 from both sides:

30 - 20 = 20 - 20 + 5xb
10 = 5xb

Now, divide both sides of the equation by 5 to solve for xb:

10/5 = (5/5) * xb
2 = xb

Hence, the solution to the equation 5x6 = 5x4 + 5xb is xb = 2.
