Question

This is a two step equation​

Answer 1

Answer:

b = -18

Step-by-step explanation:

to find be you need to isolate the variable. First, you have to multiply both sides by 13 to cancel the denominator. Then, add 8 to both sides to cancel the negative 8 on the left. You should be left with what x equals.

-8+b/13(13) = -2(13)

-8+b = -26

+8       +8

b = -18

Answer 2

Answer:

b = -18

Step-by-step explanation:

First multiply 13 on both sides which will give you

-8 + b = -26

Then add 8 to both sides and will give the answer

b = -18
