Plug 10 in for y.

10=2x-2.5

Add 2.5 to both sides.

12.5=2x

Divide both sides by 2.

6.25=x

Hope this helps! :)

Your answer would be 6.25.

When finding the answer to this equation, you will insert 10 where 'y'' is in the equation. 10= 2x - 2.5. Then you want to have x alone on one side, so you need to add 2.5 to 10. 12.5= 2x. Once you did this, divide 12.5 by 2 and you have your answer. 12.5/2= 6.25
