Alright
OpenStudy (landon34):
the first thing we do, is we add -1y to each side of the equation 5x + y + -1y = 2 + -1y
OpenStudy (darthvader2900):
Let me write that down
OpenStudy (landon34):
ok.
OpenStudy (darthvader2900):
Ok

OpenStudy (landon34):
Next, we combine like terms: y + -1y = 0
5x + 0 = 2 + -1y
5x = 2 + -1y
OpenStudy (darthvader2900):
Ok
OpenStudy (landon34):
we then divide both sides by 5
x = 0.4 + -0.2y
OpenStudy (darthvader2900):
Alright.
OpenStudy (landon34):
you got it?
