Two spheres sitting on an axis have a moment or inertia of2×25mR2=45mR2

By using parallel axis theorem,

Moment of Inertia of two spheres at a distance of b resting on the edge parallel to the axis is

 225mR2+mb2=45mR2+2mb2
Total moment of inertia is hence

45mR2+2mb2+45mR2=85mR2+2mb2

Hence the correct answer is 8mr25+2mb2.
