Answer:
The value of y by itself in the equation x+2y=10 is
[tex]y=\frac{10-x}{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given equation is x+2y=10 -------- (1)
To find y with given equation as below :
Equation (1) implies that x+2y=10
Subtracting the above equation by x we get
x+2y-x=10-x
x-x+2y=10-x
2y=10-x
Dividing by 2 on both sides we get
[tex]\frac{2y}{2}=\frac{10-x}{2}[/tex]
[tex]y=\frac{10-x}{2}[/tex]
Therefore the value of y is [tex]\frac{10-x}{2}[/tex]
Therefore the value of y by itself in the equation x+2y=10 is
[tex]y=\frac{10-x}{2}[/tex]
