Solve the following equation for x: 2x + 5y = 8. x = five halvesy + 4 x = negative five halvesy − 4 x = five halvesy − 4 x = negative five halvesy + 4

Respuesta :

Answer:

x = negative five halves y + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to solve an equation of two variables x and y  for x.

So, the solution of x will be in terms of y.

The equation is 2x + 5y = 8

⇒ 2x = 8 - 5y

⇒ [tex]x = \frac{1}{2} (- 5y + 8)[/tex]

[tex]x = - \frac{5}{2} y + 4[/tex]

Therefore, the solution is x = negative five halves y + 4 (Answer)

Answer:

D. x= negative 5 over 2 y+4
