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 4b + 4b = -7b - 3x - 6 for b in terms of x.
| -\(\frac{7}{8}\)x - \(\frac{3}{8}\) | |
| -x - 7 | |
| -\(\frac{7}{11}\)x - \(\frac{6}{11}\) | |
| \(\frac{5}{17}\)x + \(\frac{1}{17}\) |
