Question

8x + y = 9
Convert the following equations to standard form

Answer 1

x=1/8y+9/8

y=y=−8x+9

Explanation:

Let's solve for y.

8x+y=9

Step 1: Add -8x to both sides.

8x+y+−8x=9+−8x

y=−8x+9

Let's solve for x.

8x+y=9

Step 1: Add -y to both sides.

8x+y+−y=9+−y

8x=−y+9

Step 2: Divide both sides by 8.

8x/8=−y+9/8

x=−1/8y+9/8
