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 - 4b = 5b - 6y + 5 for b in terms of y.
| -15y + 1 | |
| -\(\frac{1}{3}\)y - 1\(\frac{1}{6}\) | |
| 5\(\frac{1}{2}\)y + 1 | |
| 2y - 5 |
