Answer:
y = (-4/3)x
x = (3/4)y
Step-by-step explanation:
5.5x - 1.5y = 3.5x
5.5x + 1.5y = 3.5x ⇒ Subtract 5.5x from both sides
5.5x + 1.5y - 5.5x = 3.5x - 5.5x
1.5y = -2x ⇒ Divide Both sides by 1.5
1.5y ÷ 1.5 = -2x ÷ 1.5
y = (-2/1.5)x
y = (-4/3)x
5.5x - 1.5y = 3.5x ⇒ Add 1.5y to both sides
5.5x - 1.5y + 1.5y = 3.5x + 1.5y
5.5x = 3.5x + 1.5y ⇒ Subtract 3.5x from both sides
5.5x - 3.5x = 3.5x + 1.5y - 3.5x
2x = 1.5y ⇒ Divide both sides by 2
2x ÷ 2 = 1.5y ÷ 2
x = (1.5/2)y
x = (3/4)y
