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 -3b + 8b = -9b + 8x - 3 for b in terms of x.
| -1\(\frac{4}{9}\)x - \(\frac{5}{9}\) | |
| x - \(\frac{1}{2}\) | |
| \(\frac{1}{15}\)x - \(\frac{4}{15}\) | |
| -\(\frac{3}{5}\)x + \(\frac{1}{5}\) |
