Express x in terms of y where 4*x+7*y=-16
The teacher will be very surprised to see your correct solution 😉
The solution
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
4*x+7*y = -16
Looking for similar summands in the left part:
4*x + 7*y = -16
Move the summands with the other variables
from left part to right part, we given:
$$4 x = - 7 y - 16$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 4
x = -16 - 7*y / (4)
We get the answer: x = -4 - 7*y/4
7*re(y) 7*I*im(y)
x1 = -4 - ------- - ---------
4 4
$$x_{1} = - \frac{7 \operatorname{re}{\left(y\right)}}{4} - \frac{7 i \operatorname{im}{\left(y\right)}}{4} - 4$$
x1 = -7*re(y)/4 - 7*i*im(y)/4 - 4
