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 = -4b - 9x + 2 for b in terms of x.
| -1\(\frac{7}{10}\)x + \(\frac{1}{2}\) | |
| \(\frac{4}{11}\)x - \(\frac{7}{11}\) | |
| -x + 2 | |
| -1\(\frac{1}{5}\)x + 1 |
