Express x in terms of y where 8*x+6*y=20
The teacher will be very surprised to see your correct solution 😉
The solution
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
8*x+6*y = 20
Looking for similar summands in the left part:
6*y + 8*x = 20
Move the summands with the other variables
from left part to right part, we given:
$$8 x = 20 - 6 y$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 8
x = 20 - 6*y / (8)
We get the answer: x = 5/2 - 3*y/4
5 3*re(y) 3*I*im(y)
x1 = - - ------- - ---------
2 4 4
$$x_{1} = - \frac{3 \operatorname{re}{\left(y\right)}}{4} - \frac{3 i \operatorname{im}{\left(y\right)}}{4} + \frac{5}{2}$$
x1 = -3*re(y)/4 - 3*i*im(y)/4 + 5/2
