Simplify the expression 7y+4Γ+4-2Γ+8. What is the coefficient of x? What is the constant?
Accepted Solution
A:
In order to simplify the expression we should put y on one side of the equation and all other elements on the other side. 7y+4x-4-2x+8=0 7y=-4x+4+2x-8 7y=-2x-4 Now, we should get only y on the left side of the equation, so we divide the whole equation by 7. y==2/7x-4/7 The coefficient of x is: -2/7 the constant is -4/7
