Answer:
The value of x is 200 in the equation 1/5x - 2/3y = 30, when y = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given</u>
equation: x - 2/3y = 30
when y = 15
<em>Plug in y:</em>
1/5x - 2/3(15) = 30
1/5x - 10 = 30
<em>add</em> 10 to both sides,
1/5x - 10 + 10 = 30 + 10
1/5x = 40
<em>multiply</em> both sides by 5
1/5x * 5= 40 * 5
x = 200
