Answer:

251 b + 21 or b = (-21)/251

Explanation:

Simplify the following:

6 b - 7 (-35 b - 3)

-7 (-35 b - 3) = 245 b + 21:

245 b + 21 + 6 b

Grouping like terms, 245 b + 6 b + 21 = (6 b + 245 b) + 21:

(6 b + 245 b) + 21

6 b + 245 b = 251 b:

Answer: 251 b + 21

__________________________________________

Or if you need the Roots.

Solve for b:

251 b + 21 = 0

Subtract 21 from both sides:

251 b + (21 - 21) = -21

21 - 21 = 0:

251 b = -21

Divide both sides by 251:

Answer: b = (-21)/251
