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 - 7b = -9b + 3x + 9 for b in terms of x.
| 4x - 6 | |
| \(\frac{5}{8}\)x - \(\frac{1}{2}\) | |
| \(\frac{10}{17}\)x + \(\frac{9}{17}\) | |
| x - \(\frac{8}{11}\) |
