Solve the multi-step equation:

\[ 18 = b - 7b \]

18 = b − 7 b 18 = − 6 b 18/ − 6 = b b = − 3

Add like terms so it would be 18=-6b then divide by -6 so you would get -3=b

The solution to the equation 18 = b − 7 b is b = − 3 . This is found by simplifying the equation to isolate b on one side. Finally, dividing 18 by -6 yields the result.
