Express x in terms of y where 12*x-3*y=-2
The teacher will be very surprised to see your correct solution 😉
The solution
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
12*x-3*y = -2
Looking for similar summands in the left part:
-3*y + 12*x = -2
Move the summands with the other variables
from left part to right part, we given:
$$12 x = 3 y - 2$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 12
x = -2 + 3*y / (12)
We get the answer: x = -1/6 + y/4
1 re(y) I*im(y)
x1 = - - + ----- + -------
6 4 4
$$x_{1} = \frac{\operatorname{re}{\left(y\right)}}{4} + \frac{i \operatorname{im}{\left(y\right)}}{4} - \frac{1}{6}$$
x1 = re(y)/4 + i*im(y)/4 - 1/6
