QuestionSolve the equation: -6b + 6 = -2b + 6. Find missing values and simplify. 4b=,  b=-4b = \square, \; b = \square.

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. We are solving for the variable bb. . The equation is linear.

STEP 2

The first step is to simplify the equation by combining like terms on both sides.
6b+6=2b+6-6b +6 = -2b +6Subtract 2b-2b from both sides to get4b+6=6-4b +6 =6

STEP 3

Next, we need to isolate the variable bb on one side of the equation. To do this, we subtract6 from both sides of the equation.
b+66=66-b +6 -6 =6 -6This simplifies tob=0-b =0

STEP 4

Finally, we solve for bb by dividing both sides of the equation by 4-4.
b=04b = \frac{0}{-4}

STEP 5

implify the fraction to find the value of bb.
b=0b =0So, the solution to the equation is b=0b =0.
