Question

x/2+3y/4=-1 linear equation in 2 variables

Answer 1

Answer:

So this equation needs to be in a system of equations but I will give you each unknown in the term of the other one. :)

Step-by-step explanation:

so first we will isolate the x term(solving for x in terms of y)

x/2+3y/4=-1             (We can change the -1 into -4/4)

x/2=-4/4-(3y/4)

x/2=-(3y-4)/4

x=2[-(3y-4)/4]

Now onto the y term (solving for y in terms of x)

x/2+3y/4=-1          

2(x/2+3y/4)= 2(-1)

x+6y/4=-2

6y/4= -2-x

6y= -8-4x

y= (-8-4x)/6

Hope this helps :)
