Express x in terms of y where -14*x-8*y=20
The teacher will be very surprised to see your correct solution 😉
The solution
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
-14*x-8*y = 20
Looking for similar summands in the left part:
-14*x - 8*y = 20
Move the summands with the other variables
from left part to right part, we given:
$$- 14 x = 8 y + 20$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -14
x = 20 + 8*y / (-14)
We get the answer: x = -10/7 - 4*y/7
10 4*re(y) 4*I*im(y)
x1 = - -- - ------- - ---------
7 7 7
$$x_{1} = - \frac{4 \operatorname{re}{\left(y\right)}}{7} - \frac{4 i \operatorname{im}{\left(y\right)}}{7} - \frac{10}{7}$$
x1 = -4*re(y)/7 - 4*i*im(y)/7 - 10/7
