Solve 2.2=0.03x-0.8y

$$2.2 = 0.03 x - 0.8 y$$

Solve for x

$$x=\frac{80y+220}{3}$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.

$$0.03x-0.8y=2.2$$

Add 0.8y to both sides.

$$0.03x=2.2+0.8y$$

The equation is in standard form.

$$0.03x=\frac{4y+11}{5}$$

Divide both sides of the equation by 0.03, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.

$$\frac{0.03x}{0.03}=\frac{4y+11}{0.03\times 5}$$

Dividing by 0.03 undoes the multiplication by 0.03.

$$x=\frac{4y+11}{0.03\times 5}$$

Divide \frac{11+4y}{5} by 0.03 by multiplying \frac{11+4y}{5} by the reciprocal of 0.03.

$$x=\frac{80y+220}{3}$$

Solve for y

$$y=\frac{3x}{80}-2.75$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.

$$0.03x-0.8y=2.2$$

Subtract 0.03x from both sides.

$$-0.8y=2.2-0.03x$$

The equation is in standard form.

$$-0.8y=-\frac{3x}{100}+2.2$$

Divide both sides of the equation by -0.8, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.

$$\frac{-0.8y}{-0.8}=\frac{-\frac{3x}{100}+2.2}{-0.8}$$

Dividing by -0.8 undoes the multiplication by -0.8.

$$y=\frac{-\frac{3x}{100}+2.2}{-0.8}$$

Divide 2.2-\frac{3x}{100} by -0.8 by multiplying 2.2-\frac{3x}{100} by the reciprocal of -0.8.

$$y=\frac{3x}{80}-\frac{11}{4}$$
