Question 317823
I'm assuming that you want to solve for y.



{{{5x+8y=113}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{8y=113-5x}}} Subtract {{{5x}}} from both sides.



{{{8y=-5x+113}}} Rearrange the terms.



{{{y=(-5x+113)/(8)}}} Divide both sides by {{{8}}} to isolate y.



{{{y=((-5)/(8))x+(113)/(8)}}} Break up the fraction.



{{{y=-(5/8)x+113/8}}} Reduce.
