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 - 3b = -5b - 9y + 8 for b in terms of y.
| -\(\frac{5}{12}\)y - \(\frac{7}{12}\) | |
| -\(\frac{2}{3}\)y + \(\frac{8}{9}\) | |
| \(\frac{1}{2}\)y - \(\frac{1}{7}\) | |
| 6y + 7 |
