Express x in terms of y where 15*x+5*y=16
The teacher will be very surprised to see your correct solution 😉
The solution
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
15*x+5*y = 16
Looking for similar summands in the left part:
5*y + 15*x = 16
Move the summands with the other variables
from left part to right part, we given:
$$15 x = 16 - 5 y$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 15
x = 16 - 5*y / (15)
We get the answer: x = 16/15 - y/3
16 re(y) I*im(y)
x1 = -- - ----- - -------
15 3 3
$$x_{1} = - \frac{\operatorname{re}{\left(y\right)}}{3} - \frac{i \operatorname{im}{\left(y\right)}}{3} + \frac{16}{15}$$
x1 = -re(y)/3 - i*im(y)/3 + 16/15
