Question

5(y+2)= -3 Help please TvT

Answer 1

Answer:

y = 1.4

Step-by-step explanation:

assuming we are solving for y

5(y+2)= -3

==> divide both sides by 5

y + 2 = -0.6

==> add 2 to both sides

y = 1.4

Answer 2

Answer:

-2.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: 5(y+2)= -3

Do the parentheses (Multiply 5 by Y and 2): 5y+10=-3

Simplify (subtract 10 from both sides): 5y=-13

Simplify again (divide both sides by 5): y=-2.6

Double-Check:

Given (replace -2.6 for Y): 5(-2.6+2)=-3

Do the parentheses (Add-2.6 and 2): 5(-0.6)=-3

Simplify (Multiply 5 by -0.6): -3=-3 ✔️

The answer checks out.
