Solve for x
...
isolate the x variable
5x = 1174 - 25y ==> divide both sides by 5
highlight_green%28x+=+%281174%2F5%29+-+5y%29, which can also be written as
highlight%28x=-5y%2B%281174%2F5%29%29
...
...
Solve for y
...
isolate the y variable
25y = 1174 - 5x ==> divide both sides by 25
y = %281174%2F25%29+-+%285%2F25%29x
highlight_green%28y+=+1174%2F25+-+%281%2F5%29x%29, which can also be written as
highlight%28y=%28-1%2F5%29x+%2B+1174%2F25%29
