Question

Solve for y: 3x+5y=60

Answer 1

y = -3/5 x + 12

Explanation:

3x + 5y = 60

5y = -3x + 60

y = -3/5 x + 12

Answer 2

Answer: y =
`-(3)/(5)`x + 12

Explanation:

To solve for y, we will isolate the variable y in the equation.

Given:

3x + 5y = 60

Subtract 3x from both sides of the equation:

5y = -3x + 60

Divide both sides of the equation by 5:

y =
`-(3)/(5)`x + 12
