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 - 6b = 9b - 7y - 3 for b in terms of y.
| 2\(\frac{1}{4}\)y + 1\(\frac{1}{4}\) | |
| 8y - 7 | |
| -\(\frac{2}{3}\)y - \(\frac{4}{9}\) | |
| \(\frac{1}{13}\)y + \(\frac{3}{13}\) |
