Answer:

x = 2.125 + 0.375y

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

8x + -3y = 17

Solving

8x + -3y = 17

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '3y' to each side of the equation.

8x + -3y + 3y = 17 + 3y

Combine like terms: -3y + 3y = 0

8x + 0 = 17 + 3y

8x = 17 + 3y

Divide each side by '8'.

x = 2.125 + 0.375y

Simplifying

x = 2.125 + 0.375y
