Express x in terms of y where -8*x+6*y=-5
The teacher will be very surprised to see your correct solution 😉
The solution
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
-8*x+6*y = -5
Looking for similar summands in the left part:
-8*x + 6*y = -5
Move the summands with the other variables
from left part to right part, we given:
$$- 8 x = - 6 y - 5$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -8
x = -5 - 6*y / (-8)
We get the answer: x = 5/8 + 3*y/4
5 3*re(y) 3*I*im(y)
x1 = - + ------- + ---------
8 4 4
$$x_{1} = \frac{3 \operatorname{re}{\left(y\right)}}{4} + \frac{3 i \operatorname{im}{\left(y\right)}}{4} + \frac{5}{8}$$
x1 = 3*re(y)/4 + 3*i*im(y)/4 + 5/8
