@chosenmatt any good with math? There's like 5 questions of crap I dont know.

Alrightt
OpenStudy (chosenmatt):
4x+-3y=8
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Simplifying
-4x + -3y = 6
Solving
-4x + -3y = 6
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '3y' to each side of the equation.
-4x + -3y + 3y = 6 + 3y
Combine like terms: -3y + 3y = 0
-4x + 0 = 6 + 3y
-4x = 6 + 3y
Divide each side by '-4'.
x = -1.5 + -0.75y
Simplifying
x = -1.5 + -0.75y
MEDAL IF RIGHT
