Question

6b-12=-48 ugh.?im terrible at these kinna problems please help me find out what the b is

Answer 1

to find the value of \(b\), you need to isolate it

Answer 2

start by adding \(12\) to both sides

Answer 3

6b - 12 = -48
+12 +12

Answer 4

Ok I got that part

Answer 5

good, notice that on left side, -12 and +12 eat each other out and disappear

Answer 6

you get :

6b = -36

Answer 7

Ok thank you so much!

Answer 8

we're not done yet

Answer 9

\(b\) was not isolated fully, still the \(6\) is sticking to it, get rid of it

Answer 10

divide \(6\) both sides

Answer 11

6b = -36
/6 /6

Answer 12

b = -6
