ax + b = 2x +3b
isolate terms with x on one side of the equation:
ax-2x+b=3b
move the b to the left hand side
ax-2x = 2b
factor out the x:
x(a-2)=2b
divide both sides by a -2:
x=2b/(a-2)

The equation A = 3B - 6 is to be rearranged as a fashion to make B the project. choose for the two recommendations that are ultimate arrangements of the equation. A+6=3B (A+6)/3=B A/3 +2=B recommendations of solutions: a) B = a million/3 (A + 6) d) B = 2 + a million/3A

Isolate x so it can be the subject
ax+b=2x+3b
ax-2x+b=3b
ax-2x+b-b=3b-b
ax-2x=2b
ax-2x/ a-2= 2b/ a-2
x =2b./.a-2

ax+b=2x+3b gathering terms
ax-2x = 3b-b now
x(a-2) = 2b and
x = 2b/(a-2)

ax + b = 2x + 3b
ax - 2x = 3b - b
x(a-2) = 2b
x = 2b/(a-2)
