MATLAB: How to find elements in an array

findlogical?

Given this:
x = 1:100; 
y = 201:300; 
a = 250;
I know that
x(y==a)
will return 50, the value of x corresponding to the y index where y = a. Now if a has multiple elements, I'd like to find all the values of x corresponding to all the values of y where y equals any of the values in a. For example, if
a = [250; 215; 283];
I'd like to efficiently get the array [50; 15; 83]. How can I do this?

x = 1:100; 
y = 201:300; 
a = [250; 215; 283];
out=x(ismember(y,a))
