Answer:
y= 3
Explanation:
1. plug in 7 - 2y for X in 2x = y = 5 it would look like this 2(7-2y) = y= 5
2. distribute the 2 with what is in the parenthesis. remember PEMDAS!! it would be 14 - 4y + y = 5
3. get the y alone. to do this subtract 14 from both sides. you will have
-4y + y = -9
4. combine the Y. you will get -3y = -9 (remember there is a 1 in front of alone variables that is how i got - 3)
5. divide to get the Y alone. that will be -9/-3 which is 3
your final answer: Y= 3
hope this helped :)
