Question

Solve for y: 3x - 2y - 7 = 0

Answer 1

`y=(3)/(2)x+(-7)/(2)`

Or, for a more simplified version:

`y=(3x)/(2)-(7)/(2)`

Or, for an EVEN MORE simplified version:

`y=(3x-7)/(2)`

Step-by-step explanation:

There are three different forms of answers that I put for you, but they are all still equivalent answers, it’s just that one is more simplified than the other. If I were you, I would pick the most simplified version.

Also, the image below shows step-by-step on how to solve it.

Hope this helps! :)

Answer 2

x

=

1

and

y

=

−

2

Step-by-step explanation:

Here ,

3

x

−

2

y

=

7

...

.

→

(

1

)

5

x

+

y

=

3

...

...

→

(

2

)

Multiplying eqn.

(

2

)

by

2

and adding:

i

.

e

.

(

1

)

+

2

×

(

x

−

2

y

=

x

+

2

y

=

6

−−−−−−−−−−−−−

13

x

+

0

=

13

∴

x

=

1

Subst.

x

=

1

into

e

q

n

.

(

2

)

we get

+

y

=

y

=

∴

y

=

−

5

∴

y

=

−

Hence,

x

=

and

y

=
