You can put this solution on YOUR website!
dx + 10y = 3 Must solve for y.
subtract dx from both sides
10y = -dx + 3
divide both sides by 10
y = %28%28-dx%2B3%29%29%2F10

Response to comment
That is as far as you can go, the equation has 3 unknowns. d, x, y
To find the actual values when their are 3 unknowns, you must have 3 equations related to it
two unknowns require 2 equations to find the values etc
