P=2i+2b
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by i+b.
2i+2b=P
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
2b=P-2i
Subtract 2i from both sides.
\frac{2b}{2}=\frac{P-2i}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
b=\frac{P-2i}{2}
Dividing by 2 undoes the multiplication by 2.
b=\frac{P}{2}-i
Divide P-2i by 2.
P=2i+2b
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by i+b.
