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 2b - 7b = -2b - 5y - 2 for b in terms of y.
| -\(\frac{1}{9}\)y - 1 | |
| \(\frac{1}{3}\)y + 1\(\frac{1}{3}\) | |
| \(\frac{1}{2}\)y - \(\frac{1}{2}\) | |
| -\(\frac{1}{15}\)y - \(\frac{2}{5}\) |
