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