Math Problem Statement

10x-2y=-6

Solution

To solve the equation 10x2y=610x - 2y = -6, let's solve for yy in terms of xx.

Step-by-step:

  1. Start with the given equation: 10x2y=610x - 2y = -6

  2. Isolate 2y-2y by subtracting 10x10x from both sides: 2y=10x6-2y = -10x - 6

  3. Divide everything by 2-2 to solve for yy: y=10x62y = \frac{-10x - 6}{-2}

  4. Simplify the equation: y=5x+3y = 5x + 3

Final Solution:

y=5x+3y = 5x + 3
