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 - 8x - 6 for b in terms of x.
| \(\frac{3}{14}\)x - \(\frac{4}{7}\) | |
| -4x + 8 | |
| -\(\frac{9}{10}\)x - \(\frac{7}{10}\) | |
| x + \(\frac{2}{3}\) |
