Solve the equation for y: 2x+7y=2(2x+10y)−5x

Answer 1

First thing you'll do is add -20y to both sides...
2x+7y+−20y=−x+20y+−20y
2x−13y=−x
Next, add -2x to both sides...
2x−13y+−2x
=−x+−2x−13y
=−3x
Lastly, divide both sides by -13...
−13y/−13=−3x/−13
Now, your answer is...

`y= (3)/(13) x`

Good luck with your studies, hope this helps~

Answer 2

2x + 7y = 2(2x + 10y) - 5x Use the Distributive Property
2x + 7y = 4x + 20y - 5x Combine like terms (4x and -5x)
2x + 7y = 20y - x Add x to both sides
3x + 7y = 20y Subtract 7y from both sides
3x = 13y Divide both sides by 13

`(3x)/(13)` = y Switch the sides to make it easier to read
y =
`(3x)/(13)`
