Answer:

b = (-3)/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for b:

(-10 b)/3 = 5

Multiply both sides of (-10 b)/3 = 5 by -3/10:

(-3 (-10) b)/(10×3) = (-3)/10×5

(-3)/10×(-10)/3 = (-3 (-10))/(10×3):

(-3 (-10))/(10×3) b = (-3)/10×5

(-3)/10×5 = (-3×5)/10:

(-3 (-10) b)/(10×3) = (-3×5)/10

(-10)/10 = (10 (-1))/10 = -1:

(-3-1 b)/3 = (-3×5)/10

(-3)/3 = (3 (-1))/3 = -1:

--1 b = (-3×5)/10

(-1)^2 = 1:

b = (-3×5)/10

5/10 = 5/(5×2) = 1/2:

Answer:  b = (-3)/2

-3_1/3(b) = 5

I assume you mean -3_1/3 and not

-31/3.

(-10b/3) = 5

Multiply both sides by 3 to clear the fraction.

-10b = 15

b = -15/10

Reduce.

b = -3/2
