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 -7b + 5b = -b - 9y - 6 for b in terms of y.
| y - \(\frac{7}{8}\) | |
| 3y - 1 | |
| 2\(\frac{1}{3}\)y + 1 | |
| \(\frac{5}{12}\)y + \(\frac{1}{4}\) |
