Bot GPT 3.5 To solve the equation, we can start by distributing the 4 on the right side:
-3b + 16 = 4b - 12
Next, let's combine like terms on both sides by subtracting 4b from both sides:
-3b - 4b + 16 = -12
-7b + 16 = -12
Now, let's isolate the variable by subtracting 16 from both sides:
-7b = -12 - 16
-7b = -28
Finally, divide both sides by -7 to solve for b:
b = -28 / -7
b = 4
Therefore, the value of b that satisfies the equation is 4.
