Solve 6(b 1)-(2b-3)

Question

Simplify the expression

4 b + 3

Evaluate

6 (b \times 1) - (2 b - 3)

Remove the parentheses

6 b \times 1 - (2 b - 3)

Multiply the terms

6 b - (2 b - 3)

If a negative sign or a subtraction symbol appears outside parentheses, remove the parentheses and change the sign of every term within the parentheses

6 b - 2 b + 3

Solution

More Steps

Evaluate

6 b - 2 b

Collect like terms by calculating the sum or difference of their coefficients

(6 - 2) b

Subtract the numbers

4 b

4 b + 3

Show Solution

Find the roots

b = - \frac{3}{4}

Alternative Form

b = - 0.75

Evaluate

6 (b \times 1) - (2 b - 3)

To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0

6 (b \times 1) - (2 b - 3) = 0

Any expression multiplied by 1 remains the same

6 b - (2 b - 3) = 0

Simplify

6 b - (2 b - 3)

If a negative sign or a subtraction symbol appears outside parentheses, remove the parentheses and change the sign of every term within the parentheses

6 b - 2 b + 3

Subtract the terms

Evaluate

6 b - 2 b

Collect like terms by calculating the sum or difference of their coefficients

(6 - 2) b

Subtract the numbers

4 b

4 b + 3

4 b + 3 = 0

Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign

4 b = 0 - 3

Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression

4 b = - 3

Divide both sides

\frac{4 b}{4} = \frac{- 3}{4}

Divide the numbers

b = \frac{- 3}{4}

Solution

b = - \frac{3}{4}

Alternative Form

b = - 0.75
