Q. 5x−2y=30Complete the missing value in the solution to the equation.(8,□)
Substitute x=8: We are given the equation 5x−2y=30 and a point with an x-coordinate of 8. We need to find the corresponding y-coordinate.Substitute x=8 into the equation to find y.5(8)−2y=3040−2y=30
Solve for y: Solve for y.Subtract 40 from both sides of the equation to isolate the term containing y.40−2y−40=30−40−2y=−10
Divide to solve for y: Divide both sides by −2 to solve for y.−2y/−2=−10/−2y=5
