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 -8a + 4a = 6a - 5x - 6 for a in terms of x.
| \(\frac{9}{14}\)x + \(\frac{3}{7}\) | |
| 9x + 4 | |
| \(\frac{8}{9}\)x + \(\frac{2}{3}\) | |
| -3x - 4\(\frac{1}{2}\) |
