EXPLANATION : 2b-5b = -3b & 8+3 =11 , that’s leaves you with 3b+11=-13+8b-5 . do it to the other side . -13-5=-18 . leaves you with the equation -3b+11=-18+8b !! move the variable to the left side & the constant to the right . which leads you to -3b-8b=-18-11 !! combine like terms & that takes you to -11b=-29 !! Divide both sides by -11 which makes B = 29/11 which is equivalent to 2 7/11. or 2.63
