When solving an equation with two variables, replace the variables with the values given and then solve the now variable-free equation. (Remember order of operations, PEMDAS, Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication/Division, Addition/Subtraction.)
Solve -a + 6a = -4a + 8y + 7 for a in terms of y.
| 4\(\frac{1}{4}\)y + \(\frac{1}{4}\) | |
| \(\frac{3}{5}\)y + 1\(\frac{3}{5}\) | |
| 1\(\frac{2}{5}\)y + 1 | |
| \(\frac{2}{3}\)y + 2\(\frac{1}{3}\) |
