Question

Solve this equation. 5x-2y=3 y=2x

Answer 1

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

5x-2y=3  when: y=2x

1. Plug in the y-value (y=2x) into the equation (5x-2y=3). The equation should then look like 5x-2(2x)=3

2. Simplify:

5x-2(2x)=3

5x-4x=3

1x=3

x=3

Check:

5x-2(2x)=3 (plug in the x-value you solved for: 3)

5(3)-2×2(3)=3

15-2×6=3

15-12=3

3=3

Hope this helped !
