Express x in terms of y where 18*x+12*y=4
The teacher will be very surprised to see your correct solution 😉
The solution
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
18*x+12*y = 4
Looking for similar summands in the left part:
12*y + 18*x = 4
Move the summands with the other variables
from left part to right part, we given:
$$18 x = 4 - 12 y$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 18
x = 4 - 12*y / (18)
We get the answer: x = 2/9 - 2*y/3
2 2*re(y) 2*I*im(y)
x1 = - - ------- - ---------
9 3 3
$$x_{1} = - \frac{2 \operatorname{re}{\left(y\right)}}{3} - \frac{2 i \operatorname{im}{\left(y\right)}}{3} + \frac{2}{9}$$
x1 = -2*re(y)/3 - 2*i*im(y)/3 + 2/9
