y - b / m = x

Thank you so much @silverr

do you understand why the answer is as such?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What you do to the left side you must also do to the right, so first you subtract b on both sides and then to get x on its own you divide by m. This process alone can help you solve millions of algebraic problems.
