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