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 + 7b = 6b - y + 1 for b in terms of y.
| \(\frac{2}{9}\)y - \(\frac{2}{3}\) | |
| \(\frac{8}{17}\)y - \(\frac{2}{17}\) | |
| \(\frac{4}{7}\)y - \(\frac{1}{14}\) | |
| 3y - 3\(\frac{1}{2}\) |
