Solve 4.8x=1.2y+3.6

$$4.8 x = 1.2 y + 3.6$$

Solve for x

$$x=\frac{y+3}{4}$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

The equation is in standard form.

$$4.8x=\frac{6y+18}{5}$$

Divide both sides of the equation by 4.8, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.

$$\frac{4.8x}{4.8}=\frac{6y+18}{4.8\times 5}$$

Dividing by 4.8 undoes the multiplication by 4.8.

$$x=\frac{6y+18}{4.8\times 5}$$

Divide \frac{6y+18}{5} by 4.8 by multiplying \frac{6y+18}{5} by the reciprocal of 4.8.

$$x=\frac{y+3}{4}$$

Solve for y

$$y=4x-3$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

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

$$1.2y+3.6=4.8x$$

Subtract 3.6 from both sides.

$$1.2y=4.8x-3.6$$

The equation is in standard form.

$$1.2y=\frac{24x-18}{5}$$

Divide both sides of the equation by 1.2, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.

$$\frac{1.2y}{1.2}=\frac{24x-18}{1.2\times 5}$$

Dividing by 1.2 undoes the multiplication by 1.2.

$$y=\frac{24x-18}{1.2\times 5}$$

Divide \frac{24x-18}{5} by 1.2 by multiplying \frac{24x-18}{5} by the reciprocal of 1.2.

$$y=4x-3$$
