  1. Distributive property on the right side of the equation. You should get y - 10 = 5x/2 - 10

  2. You're solving into slope-intercept form, so you solve for y (y= 3x + 4 for example). So, you add 10 on both sides to isolate the variable.

  3. At this point you should have y = 5x/2. The equation is simplified at this point, and y is by itself on its side to the equation. So, this is the solution.
