What is the value of b that satisfies the equation below
3(b+4)-2(2b+3)=-4
2 answers:

The answer is C.
Hope this helps.
Answer: C) 10
Step 1: Rewrite equation
3(b+4)-2(2B+3)=-4
Step 2: Distribute
3(b+4)-2(2B+3)=-4
3b+12-4b-6=-4
Step 3: Combine like terms
3b+12-4b-6=-4
-b+6=-4
Step 4: Get -b alone on the left side
To do this we need to subtract 6 on both sides
-b+6=-4
-6 -6
______
-b=-10
Step 5: Making b positive
Since b cannot be a negative value we need to multiply both -b and -10 by -1 to make it positive
-b=-10
-1(-b)=-1(-10)
b=10
This is the final answer!
