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 8b + 3b = 9b - 9y - 5 for b in terms of y.
| y + \(\frac{4}{11}\) | |
| -\(\frac{1}{2}\)y + 2 | |
| -\(\frac{8}{13}\)y - \(\frac{7}{13}\) | |
| 12y + 5 |
