Solve. Note the equal sign. What you do to one side, you do to the other. Remember to follow PEMDAS.
First, distribute 5 to all terms within the parenthesis
5(w - 1) = (5)(w) + (5)(-1) = 5w - 5
Next, simplify. Combine like terms
5w - 5 - 2 = 5w + 7
5w - 7 = 5w + 7
Next, isolate the variable. Add 7 to both sides, and subtract 5w from both sides
5w (-5w) - 7 (+7) = 5w (-5w) + 7 (+7)
5w - 5w = 7 + 7
0 = 14 (Untrue).

Answer:
The quantity of water drain after x min is 50
Step-by-step explanation:
Given as :
Total capacity of rain barrel = 50 gallon
The rate of drain = 10 gallon per minutes
Let The quantity of water drain after x min = y
Now, according to question
The quantity of water drain after x min = Initial quantity of water × 
I.e The quantity of water drain after x min = 50 gallon × 
or, The quantity of water drain after x min = 50 gallon × 
Hence the quantity of water drain after x min is 50
Answer

the idea being, you multiply the "x" by some power of 10 that moves the repeating part to the left of the decimal point and the split it like above.
2.5y + 3x = 27
5x - 2.5y = 5
Align the variables to make solving this easier.
2.5y + 3x = 27
-2.5y + 5x = 5
You can see that the 2.5y and -2.5y cancel each other out. Then add the 3x and 5x, and 27 + 5.
3x = 27
5x = 5
8x = 32
Divide both sides by 8.
x = 4
Now input that x into one of the equations to get y.
2.5y + 3(4) = 27
2.5y + 12 = 27
2.5y = 15
y = 6
The answer to this system of equations is x = 4, y = 6. (4, 6)
