X-5y=2

The equation \( x - 5y = 2 \) is a linear equation in two variables, \( x \) and \( y \). We can rearrange this equation to express one variable in terms of the other. For example, to solve for \( x \): \[ x = 5y + 2 \] Alternatively, we can solve for \( y \): \[ 5y = x - 2 \\ y = \frac{x - 2}{5} \] This equation represents a straight line in the coordinate plane, and you can find specific points on this line by choosing values for \( x \) or \( y \) and calculating the corresponding value of the other variable.
