1) x = 5y - 30

2) x = - 1.6y + 3.3

im assuming these are 2 different questions

Step-by-step explanation:

1)

Start with the equation:

x - 5y= -30

add 5y to both sides:

x = 5y - 30

Your answer is x = 5y - 30

2)

Start with the equation:

3x+5y=10

subtract 5y from both sides:

3x = -5y + 10

divide by 3 to get x singular

x = - 1.6y + 3.3

Your answer is x = - 1.6y + 3.3

Hope this helps :)
