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 + 5b = -6b - 4x - 8 for b in terms of x.
| -\(\frac{3}{7}\)x + \(\frac{5}{7}\) | |
| -\(\frac{1}{7}\)x - \(\frac{1}{7}\) | |
| x - 1\(\frac{1}{5}\) | |
| -9x - 8 |
