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