Question 3 of 5
Two Variables

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 + 4b = -5b - 5x + 3 for b in terms of x.

3x - 1
\(\frac{3}{17}\)x - \(\frac{7}{17}\)
-\(\frac{5}{6}\)x + \(\frac{2}{3}\)
-\(\frac{5}{6}\)x + 1\(\frac{1}{6}\)
