Answer:
y = [tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex]x - [tex]\frac{10}{3}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given expression:
5x - 6y = 20
To solve this problem, we make y the subject of the expression:
Solution
5x - 6y = 20
Add -5x to both sides of the expression;
-5x + 5x - 6y = 20 + (-5x)
-6y = 20 - 5x
Now, multiply both sides by [tex]-\frac{1}{6}[/tex] ;
[tex]-\frac{1}{6}[/tex] x (-6y) = [tex]-\frac{1}{6}[/tex] (20 - 5x )
y = [tex]-\frac{20}{6}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex]x
y = [tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex]x - [tex]\frac{10}{3}[/tex]
