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