Answer:
x = 1 - 14y
Step-by-step explanation:
- I will solve for x.
- We have 3x + 7y = -3 - x - 7y = 1
- Add the -x on both sides.
- 4x + 7y = -3 - 7y = 1
- Add the 7y on both sides.
- 4x + 14y = -3 = 1
- Add the -3 to the 1.
- 4x + 14y = 4
- Divide by 4 (from the 4x) on both sides.
- x + 14y = 1
- Subtract the 14y.
- x = 1 - 14y
If I am incorrect in my reasoning, please let me know so that I can plan better for my future answers. Have an amazing day.
