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