Answer:

x=-3/5y+3

Explanation:

Let's solve for x.

5x+3y=15

Step 1: Add -3y to both sides.

5x+3y+−3y=15+−3y

5x=−3y+15

Step 2: Divide both sides by 5.

5x/5 = -3y+15/5

Answer

x=-3/5y+3

5x+3y=15 x+2y= -5 solve for x and y-example-1
5x+3y=15 x+2y= -5 solve for x and y-example-2
5x+3y=15 x+2y= -5 solve for x and y-example-3
