Answer: x = - 4.666666667 + - 0.6666666667y

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

9x + 6y = - 42

Solving

9x + 6y = - 42

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-6y' to each side of the equation.

9x + 6y + - 6y = - 42 + - 6y

Combine like terms: 6y + - 6y = 0

9x + 0 = - 42 + - 6y

9x = - 42 + - 6y

Divide each side by '9'.

x = - 4.666666667 + - 0.6666666667y

Simplifying

x = - 4.666666667 + - 0.6666666667y
