Hello everyone!
I have this equation in two variables
y = A/x+b
I would like to find all the values for x and y that satisfy the equation.
I can't remember the correct procedure, can u help me?
Thanks!

I'm probably wrong in this but I suppose y = any real number and x= all real numbers excluding zero? since a fraction can never have a zero.

if the equation is as you posted it ...Quote:

substitute any other value of x and determine the corresponding value of y.
also, note that there are an infinite number of ordered pairs (x,y) that satisfy this equation.
to get specific solution(s), you'll need a second equation that relates x and y.
