Solve for b.

26 - 6 = - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is two step, our options are going to be limited.

Also, there are two ways of doing this.

WAY 1:

Add 6 on both sides;

26 - 6 = - 4

+6 + 6

Divide by two on both sides;

26/2 = 2/2

13 = 1

WAY 2:

Add 4 on both sides:

26 - 6 = - 4

+4 + 4

Subtract;

26 - 2 = 0

= 24
