$15 b - 3 (2 b) - 3 \cdot 5 + 2 (- 5 b + 7)$

Step 1.2

Multiply $2$ by $- 3$ .

$15 b - 6 b - 3 \cdot 5 + 2 (- 5 b + 7)$

Step 1.3

Multiply $- 3$ by $5$ .

$15 b - 6 b - 15 + 2 (- 5 b + 7)$

Step 1.4

Apply the distributive property.

$15 b - 6 b - 15 + 2 (- 5 b) + 2 \cdot 7$

Step 1.5

Multiply $- 5$ by $2$ .

$15 b - 6 b - 15 - 10 b + 2 \cdot 7$

Step 1.6

Multiply $2$ by $7$ .

$15 b - 6 b - 15 - 10 b + 14$
