Question

Two step equation

b+11/ 3= -2

Answer 1

Hi, there!

_____

» Multiply every term by 3.

`\boldsymbol{3b+11=-6}`

Now we can subtract 11 from both sides.

`\boldsymbol{3b=-17}`

Now we can divide by 3 both sides.

`\boldsymbol{b=-(17)/(3)}`

Hope the answer - and explanation - made sense,

happy studying!!
