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 -8b + 2b = 4b - 6x - 2 for b in terms of x.
| \(\frac{2}{3}\)x + \(\frac{1}{6}\) | |
| -6x - 3 | |
| -15x - 3 | |
| \(\frac{1}{2}\)x - 1 |
