Solve 2.46x+1.47y=16

$$2.46x+1.47y=16$$

Solve for x

$$x=-\frac{49y}{82}+\frac{800}{123}$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract 1.47y from both sides.

$$2.46x=16-1.47y$$

The equation is in standard form.

$$2.46x=-\frac{147y}{100}+16$$

Divide both sides of the equation by 2.46, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.

$$\frac{2.46x}{2.46}=\frac{-\frac{147y}{100}+16}{2.46}$$

Dividing by 2.46 undoes the multiplication by 2.46.

$$x=\frac{-\frac{147y}{100}+16}{2.46}$$

Divide 16-\frac{147y}{100} by 2.46 by multiplying 16-\frac{147y}{100} by the reciprocal of 2.46.

$$x=-\frac{49y}{82}+\frac{800}{123}$$

Solve for y

$$y=-\frac{82x}{49}+\frac{1600}{147}$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract 2.46x from both sides.

$$1.47y=16-2.46x$$

The equation is in standard form.

$$1.47y=-\frac{123x}{50}+16$$

Divide both sides of the equation by 1.47, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.

$$\frac{1.47y}{1.47}=\frac{-\frac{123x}{50}+16}{1.47}$$

Dividing by 1.47 undoes the multiplication by 1.47.

$$y=\frac{-\frac{123x}{50}+16}{1.47}$$

Divide 16-\frac{123x}{50} by 1.47 by multiplying 16-\frac{123x}{50} by the reciprocal of 1.47.

$$y=-\frac{82x}{49}+\frac{1600}{147}$$
