Express x in terms of y where 17*x-11*y=-1
The teacher will be very surprised to see your correct solution 😉
The solution
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
17*x-11*y = -1
Looking for similar summands in the left part:
-11*y + 17*x = -1
Move the summands with the other variables
from left part to right part, we given:
$$17 x = 11 y - 1$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 17
x = -1 + 11*y / (17)
We get the answer: x = -1/17 + 11*y/17
1 11*re(y) 11*I*im(y)
x1 = - -- + -------- + ----------
17 17 17
$$x_{1} = \frac{11 \operatorname{re}{\left(y\right)}}{17} + \frac{11 i \operatorname{im}{\left(y\right)}}{17} - \frac{1}{17}$$
x1 = 11*re(y)/17 + 11*i*im(y)/17 - 1/17
