Solve y=5-9.8x

$$y = 5 - 9.8 x$$

Solve for x

$$x=\frac{25-5y}{49}$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

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

$$5-9.8x=y$$

Subtract 5 from both sides.

$$-9.8x=y-5$$

Divide both sides of the equation by -9.8, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.

$$\frac{-9.8x}{-9.8}=\frac{y-5}{-9.8}$$

Dividing by -9.8 undoes the multiplication by -9.8.

$$x=\frac{y-5}{-9.8}$$

Divide y-5 by -9.8 by multiplying y-5 by the reciprocal of -9.8.

$$x=\frac{25-5y}{49}$$

Solve for y

$$y=-\frac{49x}{5}+5$$
