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 -4a + 2a = -a - x - 1 for a in terms of x.
| x + \(\frac{1}{3}\) | |
| 1\(\frac{1}{6}\)x - \(\frac{5}{6}\) | |
| \(\frac{1}{11}\)x - \(\frac{1}{11}\) | |
| 6x + 4 |
