can you help me im really confused


Sagot :

Answer:

x = 5-y/3

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+y=5

Subtract y from both sides.

3x + y - y = 5 - y

= 3x=5−y

Divide both sides by 3.

3x/3 = 5-y/3

Dividing by 3 undoes the multiplication by 3.

So your answer would be

x = 5-y/3

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+y=5 - equation 1

x= (5-y)÷3

Add

y

y to both sides of the equation.

3x=5+y

3x=5+y

Divide each term by 3and simplify.

Divide each term in

3x=5+y

3x=5+y by 3

3x÷3=5÷3+y÷3

Cancel the common factor of 3

x=5÷3+y÷3
