Question

$$11b-5b+6=-24-9b$$

Solve for b

$b=-2$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Combine $11b$ and $-5b$ to get $6b$.

$$6b+6=-24-9b$$

Add $9b$ to both sides.

$$6b+6+9b=-24$$

Combine $6b$ and $9b$ to get $15b$.

$$15b+6=-24$$

Subtract $6$ from both sides.

$$15b=-24-6$$

Subtract $6$ from $-24$ to get $-30$.

$$15b=-30$$

Divide both sides by $15$.

$$b=\frac{-30}{15}$$

Divide $-30$ by $15$ to get $-2$.

$$b=-2$$
