Express x in terms of y where 18*x-7*y=-4
The teacher will be very surprised to see your correct solution 😉
The solution
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
18*x-7*y = -4
Looking for similar summands in the left part:
-7*y + 18*x = -4
Move the summands with the other variables
from left part to right part, we given:
$$18 x = 7 y - 4$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 18
x = -4 + 7*y / (18)
We get the answer: x = -2/9 + 7*y/18
2 7*re(y) 7*I*im(y)
x1 = - - + ------- + ---------
9 18 18
$$x_{1} = \frac{7 \operatorname{re}{\left(y\right)}}{18} + \frac{7 i \operatorname{im}{\left(y\right)}}{18} - \frac{2}{9}$$
x1 = 7*re(y)/18 + 7*i*im(y)/18 - 2/9
