Answer:
(i think) 1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
If you replace y with the equation y=2x-3, you get 5(2x - 3)
if you distribute this, it equals 10x - 15
combining like terms 10x + 10x - 15=15 will turn into 20x - 15 = 15
if you add 15 to both sides, -15 will cancel and 15 will turn into 30
20x = 30
divide both sides by 20 which will lead to x=1.5
