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 5b - 4b = -2b - 6x - 7 for b in terms of x.
| \(\frac{13}{17}\)x + \(\frac{2}{17}\) | |
| 1\(\frac{1}{2}\)x + 1\(\frac{1}{2}\) | |
| -\(\frac{2}{7}\)x - 1 | |
| 1\(\frac{2}{7}\)x - 1 |
