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 - 9b = -4b - x + 5 for b in terms of x.
| \(\frac{8}{15}\)x + \(\frac{3}{5}\) | |
| -5x + 5 | |
| 1\(\frac{3}{5}\)x + 1 | |
| -5x + 8 |
