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 + 2b = -6b - 3y - 9 for b in terms of y.
| 2\(\frac{1}{2}\)y + 4\(\frac{1}{2}\) | |
| 3\(\frac{2}{3}\)y + 3 | |
| -14y - 8 | |
| 10y + 7 |
