1.4x + 3.5y
help! 6th grade :)
​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Simplifying

1.4x + 3.5y = 0

Solving

1.4x + 3.5y = 0

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-3.5y' to each side of the equation.

1.4x + 3.5y + -3.5y = 0 + -3.5y

Combine like terms: 3.5y + -3.5y = 0.0

1.4x + 0.0 = 0 + -3.5y

1.4x = 0 + -3.5y

Remove the zero:

1.4x = -3.5y

Divide each side by '1.4'.

x = -2.5y

Simplifying

x = -2.5y
