Solve 0.04x-18y=7

$$0.04 x - 18 y = 7$$

Solve for x

$$x=450y+175$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Add 18y to both sides.

$$0.04x=7+18y$$

The equation is in standard form.

$$0.04x=18y+7$$

Multiply both sides by 25.

$$\frac{0.04x}{0.04}=\frac{18y+7}{0.04}$$

Dividing by 0.04 undoes the multiplication by 0.04.

$$x=\frac{18y+7}{0.04}$$

Divide 7+18y by 0.04 by multiplying 7+18y by the reciprocal of 0.04.

$$x=450y+175$$

Solve for y

$$y=\frac{x-175}{450}$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract 0.04x from both sides.

$$-18y=7-0.04x$$

The equation is in standard form.

$$-18y=-\frac{x}{25}+7$$

Divide both sides by -18.

$$\frac{-18y}{-18}=\frac{-\frac{x}{25}+7}{-18}$$

Dividing by -18 undoes the multiplication by -18.

$$y=\frac{-\frac{x}{25}+7}{-18}$$

Divide 7-\frac{x}{25} by -18.

$$y=\frac{x}{450}-\frac{7}{18}$$
