Answer:

y = 250

Step 1:

To solve, we plug in 50x for y.


50x=200+10x

Then, we subtract the 10x from the right side. Our goal is to get the x by itself first.


40x=200

Then, we divide both sides by 40, since we have to get the x by itself.


(40x)/(40)=x\\\\(200)/(40) =5

x = 5

Step 2:

Now that we found x, we plug in 5 to the original equation and solve from there.


y=200+10(5)\\y=200+50\\y=250

y = 250
