Answer:

b= -2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you distribute.

-2(b-4) = 12

-2b + 8 = 12

Then, you combine like terms.

There are no like terms.

So, Next, you subtract 8 from each side.

-2b + 8 = 12

-2b - 8 = 12 - 8

-2b = 4

Finally, you divide each side by -2

-2b / -2

4 / -2

Answer: b = -2
