Answer: X = 45

Step-by-step explanation:

1x - 15 = 30

add 15 to both sides

1x = 30 + 15

1x = 45

then you have to seperate the 1 from the x, so divide 1 from both sides

45 divided by 1 = 45

so the answer is x = 45

Replace y with 15

The equation is now:

1x - 15 = 30

Add 15 to both sides:

1x = 45

Divide both sides by 1

X = 45
