Question

-2(3b-2)=8b-10 this is a problem that i am stuck on. math enough said

Answer 1

You first start by distributing the -2 in front of the parenthesis. You get -6b+4=8b-10. Then I would add the 6b to 8b so you would have 4=14b-10. Then add the 10 to the 4 and you get 14=14b. Then to get b by itself you want to divide by 14 so you end up with 1=b

Answer 2

The answer is B=1

-2(3b-2)=8b-10
-6b+4=8b-10
-14b+4=-10
-14b=-14
B=1
