Your answer is y = 6x/5 + 8/5

Kerry · Answer 2

Simplifying 6x + 5y = - 8 Solving 6x + 5y = - 8 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-5y' to each side of the equation. 6x + 5y + - 5y = - 8 + - 5y Combine like terms: 5y + - 5y = 0 6x + 0 = - 8 + - 5y 6x = - 8 + - 5y Divide each side by '6'. x = - 1.333333333 + - 0.8333333333y Simplifying x = - 1.333333333 + - 0.8333333333y
