\left(3b-2bx-3x+2x^{2}\right)\times \frac{1}{2}=\frac{9}{2}
Use the distributive property to multiply b-x by 3-2x.
\frac{3}{2}b-bx-\frac{3}{2}x+x^{2}=\frac{9}{2}
Use the distributive property to multiply 3b-2bx-3x+2x^{2} by \frac{1}{2}.
\frac{3}{2}b-bx+x^{2}=\frac{9}{2}+\frac{3}{2}x
Add \frac{3}{2}x to both sides.
\frac{3}{2}b-bx=\frac{9}{2}+\frac{3}{2}x-x^{2}
Subtract x^{2} from both sides.
\left(\frac{3}{2}-x\right)b=\frac{9}{2}+\frac{3}{2}x-x^{2}
Combine all terms containing b.
\left(\frac{3}{2}-x\right)b=-x^{2}+\frac{3x}{2}+\frac{9}{2}
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(\frac{3}{2}-x\right)b}{\frac{3}{2}-x}=\frac{-x^{2}+\frac{3x}{2}+\frac{9}{2}}{\frac{3}{2}-x}
Divide both sides by \frac{3}{2}-x.
b=\frac{-x^{2}+\frac{3x}{2}+\frac{9}{2}}{\frac{3}{2}-x}
Dividing by \frac{3}{2}-x undoes the multiplication by \frac{3}{2}-x.
b=\frac{\left(3-x\right)\left(2x+3\right)}{3-2x}
Divide \frac{9}{2}+\frac{3x}{2}-x^{2} by \frac{3}{2}-x.
