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 5a - a = -8a + 6y + 2 for a in terms of y.
| -\(\frac{2}{3}\)y + \(\frac{2}{3}\) | |
| \(\frac{4}{5}\)y + \(\frac{3}{5}\) | |
| -\(\frac{7}{12}\)y - \(\frac{5}{12}\) | |
| \(\frac{7}{13}\)y + \(\frac{2}{13}\) |
