Answer:
[tex]x = \frac{1}{5}y + 2[/tex] or [tex]x = \frac{y+10}{5}[/tex] (Not sure which one is preferred in your case)
Step-by-step explanation:
Key skills needed: Evaluating expressions
1) We are given: [tex]y = 5x-10[/tex]
2) To solve for the x variable, we want to leave the term with "x" by itself.
This means we add 10 to both sides
--> [tex]y + 10 = 5x[/tex] (Since -10 and +10 cancel out to make 0 or nothing)
3) Then we divide by 5 on both sides to get "x" completely by itself.
-----> [tex]\frac{y+10}{5} = x[/tex]
4) You can keep it as is so --> [tex]x = \frac{y + 10}{5}[/tex]
or you can divide "y" by 5 and "10" by 5 and get --> [tex]x = \frac{1}{5} y + 2[/tex]
(I am not sure which form is preferred one is preferred as the teacher matters)
Hope you understood and have a nice day!!
