Q. 5(x−y)+4=7Given the equation, what is the value of x−y ?Choose 1 answer:(A) −511(B) −53(C) 53(D) 511
Isolate the variable term: Isolate the term with the variable on one side of the equation.5(x−y)+4=7Subtract 4 from both sides to isolate the term with the variable.5(x−y)+4−4=7−45(x−y)=3
Subtract to isolate the variable: Divide both sides by the coefficient of the term with the variable to solve for x−y.55(x−y)=53x−y=53
