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