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 8b - 5b = -7b - 6y - 2 for b in terms of y.
| -1\(\frac{1}{2}\)y + \(\frac{1}{5}\) | |
| -\(\frac{1}{15}\)y - \(\frac{2}{15}\) | |
| -1\(\frac{1}{3}\)y + 2\(\frac{1}{3}\) | |
| \(\frac{1}{2}\)y + \(\frac{3}{5}\) |
