5x + 2y = 20
5 X 0.3 + 2y = 20
1.5 + 2y = 20
2y = 20 - 1.5
2y = 18.5
y = 18.5/2
y = 9.25

Thus, y equals 9.25

To solve this equation, firstly substitute 0.3 for x and then work out y.

5(0.3) + 2y = 20

We’ll start by multiplying the numbers on the left side.

1.5 + 2y = 20

The next step involves subtracting 1.5 from both sides to isolate the variable.

2y = 18.5

Finally, we divide each side by 2 to solve for y completely.

y = 9.25

Thus, the resulting value for y is 9.25.

I hope this assists!
