Express x in terms of y where -2*x+2*y=4
The teacher will be very surprised to see your correct solution 😉
The solution
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
-2*x+2*y = 4
Looking for similar summands in the left part:
-2*x + 2*y = 4
Move the summands with the other variables
from left part to right part, we given:
$$- 2 x = 4 - 2 y$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -2
x = 4 - 2*y / (-2)
We get the answer: x = -2 + y
x1 = -2 + I*im(y) + re(y)
$$x_{1} = \operatorname{re}{\left(y\right)} + i \operatorname{im}{\left(y\right)} - 2$$
