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