45 (x) + 35 (y) = 1230

What is the the answer for x

Step-by-step explanation: x = (82/3) - (7/9) y

Our goal is to get "x" alone on one side. To do this, follow the following steps.

1. Subtract "35y" on both sides

45x = 1230 - 35y

2. Divide "45" on both sides

x = (1230/45) - (35/45) y

3. Simplify the fractions

(1230/45) = 82/3

(35/45) = 7/9

4. Answer is x = (82/3) - (7/9) y
