Question

Multi step problems what is -10(10+b)=5(3b+5)

Answer 1

b= -5

Explanation:

-10(10+b)=5(3b+5)

Distribute

-100 -10b = 15b +25

Add 10b to each side

-100-10b+10b = 15b+10b +25

-100 = 25b+25

Subtract 25 from each side

-100-25 = 25b+25-25

-125 = 25b

Divide by 25

-125/25 =25b/25

-5 =b
