Solve 0.07x-0.2y=1.1

$$0.07 x - 0.2 y = 1.1$$

Solve for x

$$x=\frac{20y+110}{7}$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Add 0.2y to both sides.

$$0.07x=1.1+0.2y$$

The equation is in standard form.

$$0.07x=\frac{y}{5}+1.1$$

Divide both sides of the equation by 0.07, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.

$$\frac{0.07x}{0.07}=\frac{\frac{y}{5}+1.1}{0.07}$$

Dividing by 0.07 undoes the multiplication by 0.07.

$$x=\frac{\frac{y}{5}+1.1}{0.07}$$

Divide 1.1+\frac{y}{5} by 0.07 by multiplying 1.1+\frac{y}{5} by the reciprocal of 0.07.

$$x=\frac{20y+110}{7}$$

Solve for y

$$y=\frac{7x}{20}-5.5$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract 0.07x from both sides.

$$-0.2y=1.1-0.07x$$

The equation is in standard form.

$$-0.2y=-\frac{7x}{100}+1.1$$

Multiply both sides by -5.

$$\frac{-0.2y}{-0.2}=\frac{-\frac{7x}{100}+1.1}{-0.2}$$

Dividing by -0.2 undoes the multiplication by -0.2.

$$y=\frac{-\frac{7x}{100}+1.1}{-0.2}$$

Divide 1.1-\frac{7x}{100} by -0.2 by multiplying 1.1-\frac{7x}{100} by the reciprocal of -0.2.

$$y=\frac{7x}{20}-\frac{11}{2}$$
