Identify Equation and Goal: Identify the equation and the goal.We have the equation −32+11b=−32, and we need to solve for b.
Simplify Equation: Simplify the equation by moving the constant terms to one side and the variable terms to the other side.Since −32 is on both sides of the equation, we can add 32 to both sides to cancel it out.−32+11b+32=−32+3211b=0
Solve for b: Solve for b.To find the value of b, we divide both sides of the equation by 11.1111b=110b=0
