Solve -1.5x+2y=-1.5

$$-1.5x+2y = -1.5$$

Solve for x

$$x=\frac{4y}{3}+1$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract 2y from both sides.

$$-1.5x=-1.5-2y$$

The equation is in standard form.

$$-1.5x=-2y-1.5$$

Divide both sides of the equation by -1.5, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.

$$\frac{-1.5x}{-1.5}=\frac{-2y-1.5}{-1.5}$$

Dividing by -1.5 undoes the multiplication by -1.5.

$$x=\frac{-2y-1.5}{-1.5}$$

Divide -1.5-2y by -1.5 by multiplying -1.5-2y by the reciprocal of -1.5.

$$x=\frac{4y}{3}+1$$

Solve for y

$$y=\frac{3\left(x-1\right)}{4}$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Add 1.5x to both sides.

$$2y=-1.5+1.5x$$

The equation is in standard form.

$$2y=\frac{3x-3}{2}$$

Divide both sides by 2.

$$\frac{2y}{2}=\frac{3x-3}{2\times 2}$$

Dividing by 2 undoes the multiplication by 2.

$$y=\frac{3x-3}{2\times 2}$$

Divide \frac{-3+3x}{2} by 2.

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