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 - 4a = 2a + 3x - 8 for a in terms of x.
| \(\frac{6}{11}\)x - \(\frac{5}{11}\) | |
| 3\(\frac{1}{2}\)x - 4 | |
| -1\(\frac{1}{2}\)x - \(\frac{1}{2}\) | |
| x - 9 |
