Solve x − 5y = 6 for x.

pentagon [3]

Answer:

All real numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve a system of equations by elimination

With the equation given, you can solve for y to get: y = $\frac{1}{5}$ x - $\frac{6}{5}$

Then, substitute this value in on the equation.

x - 5( $\frac{1}{5}$ x - $\frac{6}{5}$ ) = 6

x - x + 6 = 6

6 = 6

The solution is all real numbers
