Answer:
b = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
4(b + 5) = 3b + 35
Distribute:
4(b + 5)
4(b) = 4b
4(5) = 20
4b + 20 = 3b + 35
Combine like terms:
4b - 3b = 35 - 20
4(b+5)=3b+35 perform multiplication on left side
4b+4(5)=3b+35
4b+20=3b+35 Subtract 20 from each side
4b=3b+15. subtract 3b from each side
b=15
