Express x in terms of y where 18*x-6*y=-1
The teacher will be very surprised to see your correct solution 😉
The solution
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
18*x-6*y = -1
Looking for similar summands in the left part:
-6*y + 18*x = -1
Move the summands with the other variables
from left part to right part, we given:
$$18 x = 6 y - 1$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 18
x = -1 + 6*y / (18)
We get the answer: x = -1/18 + y/3
1 re(y) I*im(y)
x1 = - -- + ----- + -------
18 3 3
$$x_{1} = \frac{\operatorname{re}{\left(y\right)}}{3} + \frac{i \operatorname{im}{\left(y\right)}}{3} - \frac{1}{18}$$
x1 = re(y)/3 + i*im(y)/3 - 1/18
