1/5x-2/3y=30<br> What is the value of the x in the equation when y=15

svetlana [45]

Answer:

$\frac{1}{5} x - \frac{2}{3} y = 30 \\ \frac{1}{5} x - \frac{2}{3} 15 = 30 \\ \frac{1}{5} x - \frac{30}{3} = 30 \\ \frac{1}{5} x - 10 = 30 \\ \frac{1}{5} x = 30 + 10 \\ \frac{1}{5} x = 40 \\ x = 40 \div \frac{1}{5} \\ x = 40 \times \frac{5}{1} \\ x = 40 \times 5 \\ x = 200$
