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