7x+11y=-5
Assistance needed.
Are u still there ?
To find the solution to the equation 7x + 11y = -5, you need to rearrange the equation in terms of either x or y. Let's rearrange it in terms of x:
7x = -11y - 5
Next, divide both sides of the equation by 7 to isolate x:
x = (-11y - 5) / 7
Now, you have the equation in terms of x. To find possible solutions, you can choose different values for y and substitute them into the equation.
For instance, let's say we want to find the solution when y = 2:
x = (-11(2) - 5) / 7
x = (-22 - 5) / 7
x = -27 / 7
So, when y = 2, x = -27/7.
You can repeat this process for different values of y to find other solutions.
