Vbc=Vbe-Vce

So, first find out base current by kirchoff's loop law in input side .

Then collector current by Ic=b*Ib;

Now output kirchoff's current law at the output give value of Vce= 9.895;

Now Vcb = 0.7-9.895 = -9.195.

Answer is 9.2v i.e. option A because.

Vce = Vbe+Vbc.

Vbc = Vce-Vbe.

Vbc = Vbe-Vce.

Vbe = 0.7.

Now, applying KVL between base and emitter,

-5+5000Ib+0.7 = 0 or, Ib = 8.6*10^-4 A.

We know, Ic = Beta*Ib or, Ic = 25*8.6*10^-4 = 0.0215 A.

Again, applying KVL between collector and emitter,

-20+470*Ic+Vce = 0 or, Vce = 9.895.

So, Vbc = 0.7-9.895 = -9.2 V.

Not right because only one answer is required.

Why not positive?

Because base-collector is normally reverse biased.

For active region, Vbe = 0.7v get ib by using kcl in input loop ib = (Vbb - Vbe) / Rb and ic = β Ib and use Kcl in outer loop and get Vce and then Vbc = Vbe - Vce = -9.2.

The equation is Vce = Vcb + Vbe.

Vbe = 0.7V is forward bias voltage of pn junction diode which is formed by base and emitter.
And Vce = 9.895 V as we calculating.
So, Vcb = Vce - Vbe = 9.195V~ = 9.2V.
So, Vbc = -Vcb = -9.2v is correct option.

Only the sign of magnitute of voltage measured changed.

How Vce is 9.895?

Apply kvl to base emitter loop.

-Vb + (Ib * 5k) + Vbe = 0. Vbe = 0.7v
Thus, Ib= 8.6*10^-4A.
B=Ic/Ib.
Thus, Ic = 0.0215A.

Appliy KVL to collector to base loop.
-20+Ic*470 +Vcb - Ib * 5k + 5 =0.
Thus, Vcb = 9.195v
Thus, Vbc = -9.195~ -9.2v.
