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 4b - b = -8b + 2y + 1 for b in terms of y.
| \(\frac{7}{8}\)y - \(\frac{3}{8}\) | |
| 5y - 2 | |
| \(\frac{1}{4}\)y - \(\frac{1}{2}\) | |
| \(\frac{1}{4}\)y + \(\frac{1}{12}\) |
