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 -3b - 6b = -4b + 8x - 4 for b in terms of x.
| -9x + 1 | |
| -1\(\frac{2}{3}\)x + 2\(\frac{1}{3}\) | |
| 14x - 4 | |
| 2x - 2 |
