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 b - 3b = 2b - 3x + 5 for b in terms of x.
| x - \(\frac{5}{6}\) | |
| \(\frac{2}{3}\)x + \(\frac{1}{3}\) | |
| x - 5 | |
| -x + 9 |
