Math Problem Statement

find x when y is (-1/4)x+5/4

Find x when y is (-1/4)x + 5/4.

Solution

From the images, it appears that you are working on a differential equation and you want to find xx when y=14x+54y = \frac{-1}{4}x + \frac{5}{4}.

To solve this, we'll first need to solve the differential equation. However, it looks like the second image might be an equation that connects with this function, but the context is unclear.

Let me break it down:

  1. First step: You have a linear equation y=14x+54y = \frac{-1}{4}x + \frac{5}{4}, so if you're looking to find the value of xx when yy takes a specific value, we can use this equation directly.

  2. Substituting: If you want to find xx when y=0y = 0, you would set the equation equal to 0: 0=14x+540 = \frac{-1}{4}x + \frac{5}{4}

    Solve for xx: 14x=54\frac{1}{4}x = \frac{5}{4}

    Multiply both sides by 4: x=5x = 5

So, if you're asking to find xx when y=0y = 0, then x=5x = 5.

If you're looking to solve for xx in a different context with the differential equation, please let me know what you need and if you want me to clarify anything further.

Would you like more details on solving this problem, or is there another specific part of the equation you need help with?
