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 = -7a - y + 6 for a in terms of y.
| \(\frac{3}{5}\)y + \(\frac{3}{5}\) | |
| -\(\frac{3}{11}\)y + \(\frac{6}{11}\) | |
| -\(\frac{1}{4}\)y - \(\frac{1}{12}\) | |
| y - \(\frac{2}{7}\) |
