Express x in terms of y where 8*x-3*y=-15
The teacher will be very surprised to see your correct solution 😉
The solution
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
8*x-3*y = -15
Looking for similar summands in the left part:
-3*y + 8*x = -15
Move the summands with the other variables
from left part to right part, we given:
$$8 x = 3 y - 15$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 8
x = -15 + 3*y / (8)
We get the answer: x = -15/8 + 3*y/8
15 3*re(y) 3*I*im(y)
x1 = - -- + ------- + ---------
8 8 8
$$x_{1} = \frac{3 \operatorname{re}{\left(y\right)}}{8} + \frac{3 i \operatorname{im}{\left(y\right)}}{8} - \frac{15}{8}$$
x1 = 3*re(y)/8 + 3*i*im(y)/8 - 15/8
