Answer:

Explanation:

Not much you can do with this single equation in two variables other than to solve it first for one variable and then for the other:

7y+23

If 8x - 7y = 23, then 8x = 7y + 23, or x = ------------

8

and:

23 - 8x

If 8x - 7y = 23, then -7y = 23 - 8x, or y = --------------

-7
