Answer:

E.  16y

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

5(x - 6y) = 50y

Expand the brackets using
Distributive Property for subtraction:  a(b - c) = ab - ac

⇒ 5 · x - 5 · 6y = 50y

⇒ 5x - 30y = 50y

Add 30y to both sides:

⇒ 5x - 30y + 30y = 50y + 30y

⇒ 5x = 80y

Divide both sides by 5:

⇒ 5x ÷ 5 = 80y ÷ 5

⇒ x = 16y
