Question

Solve the equation for y.

Answer 1

Answer: C

Step-by-step explanation:

$2x+5y=5$

$\mathrm{Subtract\:}2x\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}$

$2x+5y-2x=5-2x$

$\mathrm{Simplify}$

$5y=5-2x$

$\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}5$

$\frac{5y}{5}=\frac{5}{5}-\frac{2x}{5}$

$\mathrm{Simplify}$

$\bf{y=-\frac{2}{5}x + 1}$
