Simplifying
16x + 56y = 0

Solving
16x + 56y = 0

Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Add '-56y' to each side of the equation.
16x + 56y + -56y = 0 + -56y

Combine like terms: 56y + -56y = 0
16x + 0 = 0 + -56y
16x = 0 + -56y
Remove the zero:
16x = -56y

Divide each side by '16'.
x = -3.5y

Simplifying
x = -3.5y
