Here are the steps to solve the equation... 5x - y= 10 subtract 5x to both sides;

- y = 10 - 5x multiply by -1 to both sides;

y = 5x - 10

Find the zero: y = 0

0 = 5x - 10 add 10 to both sides;

10 = 5x divide by 5 to both sides;

2 = x

Or you can graph y = 5x - 10 in a graphing calculator. Press 2ND, press TRACE, press 2 for zero, and with the left arrow go below of the intersection of the line with x-axis and press ENTER, with the right arrow go over that intersection and press ENTER, press ENTER again. The calculator displays: x = 2 and y = 0. The solution is x = 2.

Nobody can help you find a solution until you get another equation to go along with this one. Your equation has two variables in it ... 'x' and 'y' ... so it has no unique solution all by itself.
