Solve this equation: y-3x+15=10

Jlenok [28]

Answer:

10=10

Step-by-step explanation:

y-3x+15=10

y=3x-15+10

y=3x-5

subtitute y=3x-5 in the above equation:

3x-5-3x+15=10 (3x will be eliminated with -3x)

-5+15=10

10=10

(i hope this is the way you want the answer but at least I think it is correct)
