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 -6b - 2b = b + 4y + 7 for b in terms of y.
| -y - 3 | |
| -5y - 7 | |
| -\(\frac{6}{7}\)y - 1 | |
| 1\(\frac{2}{3}\)y + \(\frac{5}{9}\) |
