Answer:

31

Explanation:

From equation:

b - 10 = 5

Isolate b and make it the subject of the formula by moving all terms (that are added to and subtracting from/by b or multiplying with and/ or dividing b) to the other side of the equation:

b = 10 + 5

b = 15


Substitute this calculated value of b and substitute in the expression:

(15) + 16

= 31
