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 -8b - 7b = -6b + 9x + 6 for b in terms of x.
| 6x + 9 | |
| -8x - 3 | |
| -1\(\frac{2}{3}\)x + 2 | |
| -\(\frac{2}{11}\)x + \(\frac{4}{11}\) |
