Answer:

b=2

Step-by-step explanation:

-12 + 3b -1 = -5 - b

-13 + 3b = -5 - b

+13         = +13

_____________

3b = 8 - b

+b =     +b

_________

4b = 8

-12+3b-1=-5-b
Combine like terms to get:
3b-13=-5-b
Add 13 to both sides:
3b= 8-b
Add b to both sides:
4b=8
Divide both sides by 4:
4b/4=8/4
b=2

Final answer
b=2

Order from least to greatest
Orlov [11]
Answer: 
In order from least to greatest: 0.25, 3 ⅜, 3 <span>⅖</span>; 

Or, write as: 0.25 < 3 ⅜ < 3 ⅖ .
___________________________________
Explanation:

0.25 =  ¼ l  (less than "1"); the lowest of the three given values. 

The remaining two values have the same whole number of 3, and a fraction:
   3 <span>⅖ ;</span> and 3 ⅜.

The least common multiples among the denominators of the fraction values is 40.   ⅖ = ?/40 ; 5*? =40? 5* 8 = 40, so 2*8 = 16;
Thus, ⅖ = 16/40, and 3 ⅖ = 3 16/40.  3/8 = ?/40? 8*5 =40; so 3*5 = 15 ; thus ⅜ = 15/40; and
and 3 ⅜ = 3 15/40.
3 15/40 is less than than 3 16/40;  
as such; 3 ⅜ is less than 3 ⅖.

So, in order from least to greatest: 0.25, 3 ⅜, 3 ⅖; 
Or, write as: 0.25 < 3 ⅜ < 3 ⅖ .
