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 -6b - 5b = 7b + 3y + 6 for b in terms of y.
| -\(\frac{8}{13}\)y - \(\frac{6}{13}\) | |
| \(\frac{1}{5}\)y + \(\frac{2}{5}\) | |
| -2\(\frac{1}{4}\)y + 2 | |
| y + 3\(\frac{1}{2}\) |
