well, Typically in literal equations, the student is asked to solve for one of the variables in the problem. For example, in your equation 7x + 2y = 5, you might have been asked to solve for y. This means you need to isolate the y by the same method you would if you had all numbers. 7x + 2y = 5, Solve for y. First, get the y-term by itself by subtracting 7x from both sides: 7x + 2y = 5 -7x -7x . 2y = - 7x + 5 Now divide all the terms on both sides by 2: 2y = - 7x + 5 2 2 2 y = - 7/2 x + 5/2

Sorry, that is the wrong equation, but you'll get the idea.
