Answer:

[tex]b=3a+\frac{c}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

First, distribute the -2 to the rest of the parenthesis, following PEMDAS.

[tex]-2(3a-b)=c\\-6a+2b=c[/tex]

Then, add -6a to both sides.

[tex]2b = 6a+c[/tex]

Now, you can divide both sides by 2 to isolate b.

[tex]b=\frac{6a+c}{2}[/tex]

Divide to simplify.

[tex]b=3a+\frac{c}{2}[/tex]
