-25.1x_{1}+40.5x_{2}=20
Add 20 to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
-25.1x_{1}=20-40.5x_{2}
Subtract 40.5x_{2} from both sides.
-25.1x_{1}=-\frac{81x_{2}}{2}+20
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-25.1x_{1}}{-25.1}=\frac{-\frac{81x_{2}}{2}+20}{-25.1}
Divide both sides of the equation by -25.1, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.
x_{1}=\frac{-\frac{81x_{2}}{2}+20}{-25.1}
Dividing by -25.1 undoes the multiplication by -25.1.
x_{1}=\frac{405x_{2}-200}{251}
Divide 20-\frac{81x_{2}}{2} by -25.1 by multiplying 20-\frac{81x_{2}}{2} by the reciprocal of -25.1.
-25.1x_{1}+40.5x_{2}=20
Add 20 to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
40.5x_{2}=20+25.1x_{1}
Add 25.1x_{1} to both sides.
40.5x_{2}=\frac{251x_{1}}{10}+20
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{40.5x_{2}}{40.5}=\frac{\frac{251x_{1}}{10}+20}{40.5}
Divide both sides of the equation by 40.5, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.
x_{2}=\frac{\frac{251x_{1}}{10}+20}{40.5}
Dividing by 40.5 undoes the multiplication by 40.5.
x_{2}=\frac{251x_{1}}{405}+\frac{40}{81}
Divide 20+\frac{251x_{1}}{10} by 40.5 by multiplying 20+\frac{251x_{1}}{10} by the reciprocal of 40.5.
