Given the equation:
5y + 10 = 6x + 6
Solve for y.
Solution:
In order to solve for y, we simply need to transpose 10 to the other side of the equation, hence it must be taken to note that in transposing a number, the sign changes.
5y + 10 = 6x + 6
5y = 6x + 6 - 10
5y = 6x - 4
Divide both sides by 5 in order to determine the value of y.
5y/5 = (6x - 4)/5
y = 6/5x - 4/5
Final answer:
y = 6/5x - 4/5
