5x + 3 = 10y - 2
Can this be solvable?
5x + 3 = 10y - 2 add 2 to both sides
5x + 5 = 10y divide both sides by 10
(1/2)x + 1/2 = y
And this is just an equation of a line with a slope of 1/2 with a y interxrpt of 1/2
It's not solvable in the sense that there is only one set of values for x and for y that makes the statement true.
For instance, when x = 5, y = 3 and when x = 10, y = 5.5.
