To solve for x, we first need to isolate y in the equation.
15*(y-0.2)+17.8=38.815y - 3 + 17.8 = 38.815y + 14.8 = 38.815y = 24y = 24/15y = 1.6
Now that we have found the value of y, we can substitute it back into the original equation to solve for x:
15(1.6-0.2)+17.8=38.815(1.4)+17.8=38.821 + 17.8 = 38.838.8 = 38.8
Therefore, the solution is x=21.
To solve for x, we first need to isolate y in the equation.
15*(y-0.2)+17.8=38.8
15y - 3 + 17.8 = 38.8
15y + 14.8 = 38.8
15y = 24
y = 24/15
y = 1.6
Now that we have found the value of y, we can substitute it back into the original equation to solve for x:
15(1.6-0.2)+17.8=38.8
15(1.4)+17.8=38.8
21 + 17.8 = 38.8
38.8 = 38.8
Therefore, the solution is x=21.
