Question

Solve for y. Use the note pad to show your work, then type your equation in the box below. If you prefer to show your work on paper, you can upload it at the end. Show the work

y- 5 = (x-2)

Answer 1

To solve for \( y \) in the equation \( y - 5 = (x - 2) \), follow these steps:

1. Start with the original equation:

\[
y - 5 = x - 2
\]

2. Add 5 to both sides to isolate \( y \):

\[
y = (x - 2) + 5
\]

3. Simplify the right side:

\[
y = x - 2 + 5
\]
\[
y = x + 3
\]

So the solution is:

\[
y = x + 3
\]

Now, you can input the equation in the box below.
