Simplifying

2x + 5y = 2

Solving

2x + 5y = 2

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-5y' to each side of the equation.

2x + 5y + -5y = 2 + -5y

Combine like terms: 5y + -5y = 0

2x + 0 = 2 + -5y

2x = 2 + -5y

Divide each side by '2'.

x = 1 + -2.5y

Simplifying

x = 1 + -2.5y

Simplifying

5X + 10y = 17

Solving

5X + 10y = 17

Solving for variable 'X'.

Move all terms containing X to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-10y' to each side of the equation.

5X + 10y + -10y = 17 + -10y

Combine like terms: 10y + -10y = 0

5X + 0 = 17 + -10y

5X = 17 + -10y

Divide each side by '5'.

X = 3.4 + -2y

Simplifying

X = 3.4 + -2y
