Answer:

$y=-(1)/(2)x \\$ OR
x=-2y

Explanation:

Given :

$5x + 5y + 5y\\$

We have to find the equivalent expression of the above equation.

Equating the expression to zero

$5x + 5y + 5y=0\\$

Adding the terms of 'y'

$5x+10y=0\\$

Taking the terms of 'x' to one side and 'y' terms to the other side.

5x=-10y

$x=(-10y)/(5)\\ x=-2y$

OR

$5x=-10y\\y=-(1)/(2)x$
