Hi there!

»»————- ★ ————-««

I believe your answer is:


b=(27)/(2)

»»————- ★ ————-««

Here’s why:

⸻⸻⸻⸻


\boxed{\text{Calculating The Answer...}}\\\\2-(b)/(3)=-(5)/(2)\\--------------\\\rightarrow 2 - 2 -(b)/(3)=-(5)/(2)-2\\\\\rightarrow-(b)/(3)=-(9)/(2)\\\\\rightarrow (-(b)/(3))3=(-(9)/(2))3\\\\\rightarrow -b = -(27)/(2)\\\\\rightarrow (-b = -(27)/(2))/(-1)\\\\\rightarrow \boxed{b=(27)/(2)}\text{ or } \boxed{b=13.5}

⸻⸻⸻⸻

Hope this helps you. I apologize if it’s incorrect.

Answer:

b = 7.5


b=7(1)/(2)


b=(15)/(2)

Explanation:


(-b)/(3)= (-5)/(2)

- b × 2 = - 5 × 3

- 2b = - 15

- 2b ÷ - 2 = - 15 ÷ - 2

b = 7.5
