Math Problem Statement

find x in terms of y 7x+4y-3=3x=1

Solution

It looks like there's a typo in the equation. The equation seems to be meant as one equation rather than two. Based on the format, I believe the correct equation might be:

7x+4y3=3x+17x + 4y - 3 = 3x + 1

I'll solve for xx in terms of yy using this equation:

  1. Start with the given equation: 7x+4y3=3x+17x + 4y - 3 = 3x + 1

  2. Move all the terms involving xx to one side by subtracting 3x3x from both sides: 7x3x+4y3=17x - 3x + 4y - 3 = 1 Simplifying the equation: 4x+4y3=14x + 4y - 3 = 1

  3. Now, isolate the xx-terms by moving the non-xx terms to the other side. Add 3 to both sides: 4x+4y=44x + 4y = 4

  4. Subtract 4y4y from both sides to isolate 4x4x: 4x=44y4x = 4 - 4y

  5. Finally, solve for xx by dividing both sides by 4: x=1yx = 1 - y

So, xx in terms of yy is:

x=1y\boxed{x = 1 - y}

Would you like more details on any of these steps or have any further questions?

Here are five related questions you might consider:

  1. How would you solve for yy in terms of xx given the same equation?
  2. What happens to the value of xx when y=0y = 0?
  3. How can you graph the equation x=1yx = 1 - y?
  4. What is the significance of the slope in the equation x=1yx = 1 - y?
  5. How would the equation change if the constant on the right side was different?

Tip: When solving linear equations, always aim to isolate the variable of interest by moving terms across the equation systematically.
