Question

Rearranging Equations: Solve the equation for y: 8x + y = 14 Solve the equation for x: -9x + 3y = 18

Answer 1

y=14-8x

x= -2 + 3y/9x

Explanation:

8x+y=14

isolate y so you get:

y=14-8x

-9x+3y=18

isolate x so you get:

-9x=18-3y

divide on both sides to get x by itself

-9x/-9x 18-3y/-9x

x= -2 + 3y/9x

Hope this helps :)
