    B = 2

    Step-by-step explanation:

    To solve the linear equation;

    - 12 + 3B - 1 = - 5 - B

    we will first collect like-term that is; we will make all the B variables to be on the left-hand side of the equation and all the constant to be on the right-hand side of the equation

    (when - B cross over to the left-hand side of the equation, B becomes positive, when - 12 and - 1 cross over to the right-hand side of the equation, they become positive 12 and 1)

    3B + B = - 5 + 12 + 1

    4B = 8

    Divide both-side of the equation by 4 to get the value of B

    4B/4 = 8/4

    (on the left-hand side of the equation, 4 will cancel out 4 leaving us with B and 8 will be divided by 4 to give us 2)

    B = 2

    Therefore the solution to the linear of the equation is B = 2
