Answer: Hi!

First, we will use inverse operations to remove the 7. Subtract 7 on both sides:

7 - 7 = 0

4 - 7 = -3

Our equation now looks like this:

-11b = -3

Now we will use inverse operations to isolate the b. Divide -11 on both sides:

-11b ÷ -11 = b

-3 ÷ -11 = 3/11

Our equation now looks like this:

3/11 = b

3/11 is equal to b. This is your answer!

Hope this helps!
