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 - 8b = -5b + 9x + 2 for b in terms of x.
| \(\frac{7}{8}\)x - \(\frac{3}{4}\) | |
| -2x + \(\frac{1}{4}\) | |
| 17x + 2 | |
| -14x + 1 |
