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 + 5b = -9b + 5y + 2 for b in terms of y.
| 3y - 6 | |
| -\(\frac{1}{4}\)y + \(\frac{1}{4}\) | |
| y + \(\frac{2}{13}\) | |
| \(\frac{1}{3}\)y + \(\frac{7}{12}\) |
