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 9b + 6b = -9b + 3x - 5 for b in terms of x.
| 3\(\frac{1}{4}\)x - \(\frac{1}{2}\) | |
| -\(\frac{1}{6}\)x - \(\frac{5}{18}\) | |
| \(\frac{7}{8}\)x + 1 | |
| 1\(\frac{3}{7}\)x - 1\(\frac{1}{7}\) |
