-(3b-15)=6(2b+5)

OpenStudy (geometry_hater):

you need to distribute the numbers outside the parenthesis

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but not how

OpenStudy (geometry_hater):

What?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do not know how to find the answer

OpenStudy (geometry_hater):

All you need to do is multiply - into (3b - 15) and the 6 into (2b+5)

OpenStudy (geometry_hater):

the - is basically -1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-(3b - 15)=6(2b+5) -3b+15=12 b +30 -3b-12b=30-15 -15b=15 b=-1
