Answer:
b = 5/4
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find the solution of the following equation :
[tex]2b+\dfrac{1}{2}=3[/tex]
Subtracting 1/2 both sides we get :
[tex]2b+\dfrac{1}{2}-\dfrac{1}{2}=3-\dfrac{1}{2}\\\\2b=\dfrac{5}{2}[/tex]
Dividing both sides by 2 we get :
[tex]b=\dfrac{5}{4}[/tex]
so, the value of b is 5/4.
