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 3a + 8a = -9a - 3y - 8 for a in terms of y.
| \(\frac{1}{11}\)y + \(\frac{4}{11}\) | |
| -\(\frac{11}{12}\)y - \(\frac{2}{3}\) | |
| -\(\frac{3}{7}\)y - \(\frac{2}{7}\) | |
| -\(\frac{9}{16}\)y - \(\frac{1}{2}\) |
