Answer: y = 5d + 7 / c - 3

Explanation:

Step 1: Add -3y to both sides

cy - 7 + -3y = 5d + 3y + -3y

= cy - 3y - 7 = 5d

Step 2: Now, add 7 on both sides

cy - 3y - 7 +7 = 5d +7

= cy - 3y = 5d +7

Step 3: Factor out y

y(c - 3) = 5d + 7

Step 4: Divide both sides by c-3

y(c - 3) / c - 3 = 5d+7 / c-3

Your answer for this should be

y = 5d + 7 / c - 3

Hope this helped!
