Question

Solve for b Step by step
2+3b=5b-4

Answer 1

b=3

Explanation:

You want to put the variables on one side, so to get rid of the 3b, subtract 3b from both sides

2+3b-3b=5b-3b-4

2=2b-4

Then you want to get rid of the -4 so you add 4

2+4=2b-4+4

6=2b

Then, divide 6 by 2 to get b by itself

3=b
