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 + 6b = -6b - x - 8 for b in terms of x.
| -7\(\frac{1}{2}\)x - 2\(\frac{1}{2}\) | |
| -x - 1\(\frac{1}{7}\) | |
| x + \(\frac{1}{3}\) | |
| -\(\frac{5}{6}\)x - \(\frac{7}{12}\) |
