What is 3x-5y=5?

3x-5y=5

First, subtract 3x from both sides,

-5y=3x-5

Second, divide everything by 5, to get y by itself

y=-3x/5-1

Now that we know what y equals, just substitute that for y.

3x-5 (-3x/5-1) = 5

Do the math ...

3x+3x+5=5

Add like terms ...

6x+5=5

Subtract 5 from both sides, then solve for x.

6x=0

6/6=0/6

x=0/6=0

So now that we know x=0, substitute 0 for x, then solve for y.

3 (0) - 5y=5

-5y=5

-5/5=5/-5

y=-1

Since x=0 and y=-1, the ordered pair is (0,-1)

X equals to 5 and y equals to 2
