    Combine like terms 5b and 2b then you would end up with 3-7b=10 then subtract 3 from 10 and you would end up with - 7b=7

    3-5b=10+2b

    We move all terms to the left:

    3-5b - (10+2b) = 0

    We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

    -5b - (2b+10) + 3=0

    We get rid of parentheses

    -5b-2b-10+3=0

    We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

    -7b-7=0

    We move all terms containing b to the left, all other terms to the right

    -7b=7

    b=7/-7

    b=-1
