Simplifying
18x + -44 = 13y + -38
Reorder the terms:
-44 + 18x = 13y + -38
Reorder the terms:
-44 + 18x = -38 + 13y
Solving
-44 + 18x = -38 + 13y
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '44' to each side of the equation.
-44 + 44 + 18x = -38 + 44 + 13y
Combine like terms: -44 + 44 = 0
0 + 18x = -38 + 44 + 13y
18x = -38 + 44 + 13y
Combine like terms: -38 + 44 = 6
18x = 6 + 13y
Divide each side by '18'.
x = 0.3333333333 + 0.7222222222y
Simplifying
x = 0.3333333333 + 0.7222222222y

If you would like to solve the system of equations, you can do this using the following steps:
-3x + 4y = 12
x * 1/4 - 1/3 * y = 1 ... x * 1/4 = 1 + 1/3 * y ... x = 4 + 4/3 * y
_____________
<span>-3x + 4y = 12
</span>-3 * (4 + 4/3 * y) + 4y = 12
-12 - 4y + 4y = 12
-12 = 12
-12 - 12 = 0
-24 = 0
The correct result would be: <span>the system of the equations has no solution; the two lines are parallel.</span>
Isn’t it the example part?
