for the following equation 3x -y = 4 find x if y=2 find y if x=1/3
Present solutions as ordred pairs
--------------------------------------
3x -y = 4
Solve for "y": y = 3x - 4
Solve for "x": x = (1/3)y + (4/3)
-------------------------
If y=2, then x = (1/3)*2 + (4/3) = (2/3)+(4/3) = (6/3) = 2
-------------------
If x = 1/3, then y = 3*(1/3) - 4 = 1-4 = -3
=================================================
