Question 18

Fill in the blanks to make each statement true:

The solution of te equation 2y=5y-$\frac{18}{5}$ is ..............

Answer 1

$\frac{6}{5}$
Given, $2y=5y-\frac{18}{5}\Rightarrow 2y-5y=\frac{-18}{5}\Rightarrow -3y=-\frac{18}{5}\Rightarrow \frac{-3y}{-3}=\frac{-18}{-3\times 5}\therefore y=\frac{6}{5}$
Hence, the solution of the given equation is $\frac{6}{5}.$
