What is the answer 4x-5y equals 14?
A single linear equation in two variables cannot be solved.
How do you solve y equals -4x plus 3?
You cannot solve one linear equation with two variables.
What is the 3 solutions to the equation y equals -4x-5?
You need two independent equations to solve for two unknowns or variables (x and y).
What is x-7y plus 4x-2y simplified?
Splitting the equation up into the two variables: x + 4x = 5x -7y + -2y = -9y Therefore, the simplified version is: 5x - 9y
How do you solve 4y equals 2x plus 2?
The equation 4y = 2x + 2 cannot just be solved. If you are trying to solve a system, you need as many equations as you have variables (x and y in this case). Since you have two variables, you need two equations.For example, if you had:4y = 2x + 2 AND 2y = 4x + 4, then it would be possible to solve like so....first solve for one of the variables in one of the equations. Let's go for y in the second equation.2y = 4x + 4 ----> 2y/2 = 4x/2 + 4/2 ----> y = 2x + 2.now use this value of y and place it into the first equation and then you can solve for x.4(2x + 2) = 2x + 2 ----> 8x + 8 = 2x + 2 ----> 6x = -6 ----> x = -1now you can replace the -1 into either equation and solve for y4y = 2(-1) + 2 ----> 4y = -2 + 2 ----> 4y = 0 ----> y = 0So, if there is another equation for you to solve with, you can easily use this method to solve for both variables.
