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 -7b - 5b = 9b - 2y + 2 for b in terms of y.
| 1\(\frac{2}{5}\)y - \(\frac{3}{5}\) | |
| -\(\frac{3}{16}\)y - \(\frac{1}{8}\) | |
| 2\(\frac{3}{4}\)y + 1 | |
| -\(\frac{2}{15}\)y + \(\frac{3}{5}\) |
