Okay, let's solve this step-by-step:
X/5-y = m-1
Add y to both sides:
X/5 = m
Multiply both sides by 5:
X = 5m
So in this equation, X = 5m.
To find y, we subtract m-1 from both sides of the original equation:
X/5 = 5m
X/5 - (m-1) = 5m - (m-1)
X/5 - m + 1 = 4m
(X - 5m) / 5 = m - 1
X - 5m = 5(m - 1)
X = 20m - 5
So if we let m = any value, we can calculate y. For example:
If m = 3, then:
X = 20*3 - 5
= 55 - 5 = 50
50/X = 5(m - 1) = 5*2 = 10
y = 10
Does this make sense? Let me know if you have any other questions!
