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 2b + 4b = -4b - 8x + 6 for b in terms of x.
| x + 1\(\frac{2}{3}\) | |
| -\(\frac{4}{17}\)x + \(\frac{5}{17}\) | |
| -2x + 1 | |
| \(\frac{3}{8}\)x - 1 |
