Solve linear equations with one or two variables. Find the value of an expression given a value for the variable.
a. Solve: 5x+2=105x+2=10 b. Find 5x+25x+2 when x=3x=-3 c. Solve for y:5x+2y=10y: 5x+2y=10 d. Solve for x:5x+2y=10x: 5x+2y=10

STEP 1

Assumptions
1. For part a, we are solving a linear equation in one variable.
2. For part b, we are evaluating an expression for a given value of xx.
3. For part c, we are solving a linear equation in two variables for yy.
4. For part d, we are solving a linear equation in two variables for xx.

STEP 2

Solve for xx in the equation 5x+2=105x + 2 = 10.
First, subtract 2 from both sides of the equation to isolate the term with xx.
5x+22=1025x + 2 - 2 = 10 - 2

STEP 3

Simplify both sides of the equation.
5x=85x = 8

STEP 4

Now, divide both sides by 5 to solve for xx.
5x5=85\frac{5x}{5} = \frac{8}{5}

STEP 5

Simplify the equation to find the value of xx.
x=85x = \frac{8}{5}
For part a, x=85x = \frac{8}{5}.

STEP 6

For part b, find the value of 5x+25x + 2 when x=3x = -3.
Substitute xx with 3-3 in the expression 5x+25x + 2.
5(3)+25(-3) + 2

STEP 7

Perform the multiplication and addition to evaluate the expression.
15+2-15 + 2

STEP 8

Simplify the expression to find the value.
15+2=13-15 + 2 = -13
For part b, 5x+2=135x + 2 = -13 when x=3x = -3.

STEP 9

For part c, solve for yy in the equation 5x+2y=105x + 2y = 10.
We can solve for yy by first isolating the term with yy.
Subtract 5x5x from both sides of the equation.
5x+2y5x=105x5x + 2y - 5x = 10 - 5x

STEP 10

Simplify both sides of the equation.
2y=105x2y = 10 - 5x

STEP 11

Now, divide both sides by 2 to solve for yy.
2y2=105x2\frac{2y}{2} = \frac{10 - 5x}{2}

STEP 12

Simplify the equation to find the value of yy.
y=105x2y = \frac{10 - 5x}{2}
For part c, y=105x2y = \frac{10 - 5x}{2}.

STEP 13

For part d, solve for xx in the equation 5x+2y=105x + 2y = 10.
We can solve for xx by first isolating the term with xx.
Subtract 2y2y from both sides of the equation.
5x+2y2y=102y5x + 2y - 2y = 10 - 2y

STEP 14

Simplify both sides of the equation.
5x=102y5x = 10 - 2y

STEP 15

Now, divide both sides by 5 to solve for xx.
5x5=102y5\frac{5x}{5} = \frac{10 - 2y}{5}

STEP 16

Simplify the equation to find the value of xx.
x=102y5x = \frac{10 - 2y}{5}
For part d, x=102y5x = \frac{10 - 2y}{5}.
