Question

What is the value of x in teh equation 1/5x-2/3y=30, when y=15​

Answer 1

• x=200

Explanation:

Given the equation

`(1)/(5)x-(2)/(3)y=30`

putting y=15

`(1)/(5)x-(2)/(3)\left(15\right)=30`

`(1)/(5)x-10=30`

add 10 to both sides

`(1)/(5)x-10+10=30+10`

`(1)/(5)x=40`

`x=200`

Therefore, the value of x:

• x=200
