Answer:
Simplifying
4y + 3 = 5x + -7 + 3x + 17
Reorder the terms:
3 + 4y = 5x + -7 + 3x + 17
Reorder the terms:
3 + 4y = -7 + 17 + 5x + 3x
Combine like terms: -7 + 17 = 10
3 + 4y = 10 + 5x + 3x
Combine like terms: 5x + 3x = 8x
3 + 4y = 10 + 8x
Solving
3 + 4y = 10 + 8x
Solving for variable 'y'.
Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-3' to each side of the equation.
3 + -3 + 4y = 10 + -3 + 8x
Combine like terms: 3 + -3 = 0
0 + 4y = 10 + -3 + 8x
4y = 10 + -3 + 8x
Combine like terms: 10 + -3 = 7
4y = 7 + 8x
Divide each side by '4'.
y = 1.75 + 2x
Simplifying
y = 1.75 + 2x
