B-5=9

b=9+5

b=14

To get variable b by itself , you add 5 to both sides of the equation.

Answer: b=14

Explanation:

we can use three steps

isolate the variable, use inverse operation and do everything on both sides of the equation to keep the equation in balance

if we had 5 back on both sides of the equation:

b-5=9

b= 14
