Answer: 10

Step-by-step explanation: since dx/dt = 2, you have to create an equation. dx/dt = dy/dt * dx/dy is your equation. now we substitute. 2 = dy/dt *dx/dy. find the derivative of 5x in terms of y (dx/dy), which is 1/5. so now your equation is 2 = dy/dt * 1/5. solve for dy/dt and your answer is 10.
