Solve 2.2b+c=1

$$2.2 b + c = 1$$

Solve for b

$$b=\frac{5-5c}{11}$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract c from both sides.

$$2.2b=1-c$$

Divide both sides of the equation by 2.2, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.

$$\frac{2.2b}{2.2}=\frac{1-c}{2.2}$$

Dividing by 2.2 undoes the multiplication by 2.2.

$$b=\frac{1-c}{2.2}$$

Divide 1-c by 2.2 by multiplying 1-c by the reciprocal of 2.2.

$$b=\frac{5-5c}{11}$$

Solve for c

$$c=-\frac{11b}{5}+1$$

Solution Steps

Subtract 2.2b from both sides.

$$c=1-2.2b$$
