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 6a - 8a = 4a - 6y + 6 for a in terms of y.
| -1\(\frac{3}{5}\)y + \(\frac{2}{5}\) | |
| y + 3 | |
| 2\(\frac{3}{5}\)y + \(\frac{1}{5}\) | |
| \(\frac{1}{2}\)y + 3\(\frac{1}{2}\) |
