Question

If x is 1 what is the value of y?9x - 5y = 29

Answer 1

Given

The equation,

9x - 5y = 29.

To find the value of y when x is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

`9x-5y=29`

That implies,

When x=1,

`\begin{gathered} 9(1)-5y=29 \\ 9-5y=29 \\ -5y=29-9 \\ -5y=20 \\ y=(20)/(-5) \\ y=-4 \end{gathered}`

Hence, the value of y is -4.
