Solve 15a+6b=2

$$15 a + 6 b = 2$$

Solve for a

$$a=-\frac{2b}{5}+\frac{2}{15}$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract 6b from both sides.

$$15a=2-6b$$

Divide both sides by 15.

$$\frac{15a}{15}=\frac{2-6b}{15}$$

Dividing by 15 undoes the multiplication by 15.

$$a=\frac{2-6b}{15}$$

Divide 2-6b by 15.

$$a=-\frac{2b}{5}+\frac{2}{15}$$

Solve for b

$$b=-\frac{5a}{2}+\frac{1}{3}$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract 15a from both sides.

$$6b=2-15a$$

Divide both sides by 6.

$$\frac{6b}{6}=\frac{2-15a}{6}$$

Dividing by 6 undoes the multiplication by 6.

$$b=\frac{2-15a}{6}$$

Divide 2-15a by 6.

$$b=-\frac{5a}{2}+\frac{1}{3}$$
