Answer:  29

=================================

Work Shown:

Solve the second equation for f(b)

2f(b) = 28

f(b) = 28/2

f(b) = 14

----------

Plug in x = b and solve for b

f(x) = 3x-1

f(b) = 3b-1 ... replace every x with b

14 = 3b-1 ..... plug in f(b) = 14

3b-1 = 14

3b = 14+1

3b = 15

b = 15/3

b = 5

-----------

f(x) = 3x-1

f(2b) = 3(2b)-1 .... replace every x with 2b

f(2b) = 3(2*5)-1 .... plug in b = 5

f(2b) = 3*10-1

f(2b) = 30-1

f(2b) = 29
