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 5b + 5b = -9b - 2x + 5 for b in terms of x.
| x + \(\frac{5}{9}\) | |
| -1\(\frac{1}{10}\)x - \(\frac{1}{2}\) | |
| -\(\frac{1}{2}\)x + \(\frac{5}{14}\) | |
| -1\(\frac{1}{5}\)x - 1\(\frac{1}{5}\) |
