Solve for b in 2b-3b+4=5: Linear Equation Solution

Let's first arrange the equation so that on the left-hand side we have the terms with the coefficient $b$ and on the right-hand side the numbers without the coefficient $b$.

Remember that when we move terms across the equals sign, the plus and minus signs will change accordingly:

$2b-3b=5-4$

Let's now solve the subtraction exercise on both sides:

$-1b=1$

Finally, we can divide both sides by -1 to find our answer:

$b=-1$
