Question 3 of 5
Two Variables

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 -a - 9a = -5a - 8x - 1 for a in terms of x.

-\(\frac{5}{7}\)x - \(\frac{2}{7}\)
\(\frac{1}{4}\)x - \(\frac{1}{4}\)
-\(\frac{1}{6}\)x + 1\(\frac{1}{6}\)
x + 1\(\frac{4}{5}\)
