Solve for y 2y=-10x

$2 y = - 10 x$

Step 1

Divide each term in $2 y = - 10 x$ by $2$ .

$\frac{2 y}{2} = \frac{- 10 x}{2}$

Step 2

Simplify the left side.

Cancel the common factor of $2$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{2 y}{2} = \frac{- 10 x}{2}$

Divide $y$ by $1$ .

$y = \frac{- 10 x}{2}$

$y = \frac{- 10 x}{2}$

$y = \frac{- 10 x}{2}$

Step 3

Simplify the right side.

Cancel the common factor of $- 10$ and $2$ .

Factor $2$ out of $- 10 x$ .

$y = \frac{2 (- 5 x)}{2}$

Cancel the common factors.

Factor $2$ out of $2$ .

$y = \frac{2 (- 5 x)}{2 (1)}$

Cancel the common factor.

$y = \frac{2 (- 5 x)}{2 \cdot 1}$

Rewrite the expression.

$y = \frac{- 5 x}{1}$

Divide $- 5 x$ by $1$ .

$y = - 5 x$

$y = - 5 x$

$y = - 5 x$

$y = - 5 x$
