Answer: b= - -log10(7)+3/2
Step-by-step explanation: log 10 (7) -2b-9=-6 : b= - -log10(7)+3/2 (Decimal : b = -1.07745...)
so these are the steps how I got it I did log 10 (7)-2b-9=-6 subtract log 10 (7) -9 from both sides log 10 (7)-2b-9-(log10(7)-9)=-6-(log 10 (7) -9)
Simplify -2b= -log10(7)+3
Divide both sides by -2 -2b/2= - log 10(7)/-2+ 3/-2 if you simplify it should give you b= - -log10(7)+3/2 that should be your answer but i'm not sure those I think that's how you do it let me know if you got it right bye!
