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 + 6b = 3b - z + 3 for b in terms of z.
| -2z + 6 | |
| \(\frac{7}{8}\)z - \(\frac{3}{8}\) | |
| -1\(\frac{1}{6}\)z - 1\(\frac{1}{2}\) | |
| 1\(\frac{3}{11}\)z + \(\frac{8}{11}\) |
