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