Solve (1/8)15-3y=-4x

$$( 1 / 8 ) 15 - 3 y = - 4 x$$

Solve for x

$$x=\frac{3y}{4}-\frac{15}{32}$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Multiply \frac{1}{8} and 15 to get \frac{15}{8}.

$$\frac{15}{8}-3y=-4x$$

Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.

$$-4x=\frac{15}{8}-3y$$

Divide both sides by -4.

$$\frac{-4x}{-4}=\frac{\frac{15}{8}-3y}{-4}$$

Dividing by -4 undoes the multiplication by -4.

$$x=\frac{\frac{15}{8}-3y}{-4}$$

Divide \frac{15}{8}-3y by -4.

$$x=\frac{3y}{4}-\frac{15}{32}$$

Solve for y

$$y=\frac{4x}{3}+\frac{5}{8}$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Multiply \frac{1}{8} and 15 to get \frac{15}{8}.

$$\frac{15}{8}-3y=-4x$$

Subtract \frac{15}{8} from both sides.

$$-3y=-4x-\frac{15}{8}$$

Divide both sides by -3.

$$\frac{-3y}{-3}=\frac{-4x-\frac{15}{8}}{-3}$$

Dividing by -3 undoes the multiplication by -3.

$$y=\frac{-4x-\frac{15}{8}}{-3}$$

Divide -4x-\frac{15}{8} by -3.

$$y=\frac{4x}{3}+\frac{5}{8}$$
