Solve 2.5h+1.75p=353

$$2.5 h + 1.75 p = 353$$

Solve for h

$$h=-\frac{7p}{10}+141.2$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract 1.75p from both sides.

$$2.5h=353-1.75p$$

The equation is in standard form.

$$2.5h=-\frac{7p}{4}+353$$

Divide both sides of the equation by 2.5, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.

$$\frac{2.5h}{2.5}=\frac{-\frac{7p}{4}+353}{2.5}$$

Dividing by 2.5 undoes the multiplication by 2.5.

$$h=\frac{-\frac{7p}{4}+353}{2.5}$$

Divide 353-\frac{7p}{4} by 2.5 by multiplying 353-\frac{7p}{4} by the reciprocal of 2.5.

$$h=-\frac{7p}{10}+\frac{706}{5}$$

Solve for p

$$p=\frac{1412-10h}{7}$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract 2.5h from both sides.

$$1.75p=353-2.5h$$

The equation is in standard form.

$$1.75p=-\frac{5h}{2}+353$$

Divide both sides of the equation by 1.75, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.

$$\frac{1.75p}{1.75}=\frac{-\frac{5h}{2}+353}{1.75}$$

Dividing by 1.75 undoes the multiplication by 1.75.

$$p=\frac{-\frac{5h}{2}+353}{1.75}$$

Divide 353-\frac{5h}{2} by 1.75 by multiplying 353-\frac{5h}{2} by the reciprocal of 1.75.

$$p=\frac{1412-10h}{7}$$
