Answer:
x = (-3y)/5 + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.
First, subtract 3y from both sides:
5x + 3y (-3y) = 15 (-3y)
5x = -3y + 15
Next, divide 5 from both sides of the equation:
(5x)/5 = (-3y + 15)/5
x = (-3y + 15)/5
x = (-3y)/5 + (15)/5
x = (-3y)/5 + 3
x = (-3y)/5 + 3
