Question

Solve for y......."6 = 2(y + 2)" align="absmiddle" class="latex-formula">
​

Answer 1

Rewrite the equation as 2(y+2)=6

Divide each term in 2 (y+2)=6 by 2 and simplify

2(y+2)/2=6/2

Simplify the left side

Cancel the common factor of 2

x(y+3)x=6/2

Divide y+2 by 1

y+2=6/2

Simplify the right side

Divide 6 by 2

y+2=3

Move all terms not containing y to the right side of the equation

y=1

Answer 2

$\qquad \qquad \bf \huge\star \: \: \large{ \underline{Answer} } \huge \: \: \star$

• y = 1

$\textsf{ \underline{\underline{Steps to solve the problem} }:}$

$\qquad❖ \: \sf \:6 = 2(y + 2)$

$\qquad❖ \: \sf \:(y + 2) = \cfrac{6}{2}$

$\qquad❖ \: \sf \:y + 2 = 3$

$\qquad❖ \: \sf \:y = 3 - 2$

$\qquad❖ \: \sf \:y = 1$

$\qquad \large \sf {Conclusion} :$

• Value of y = 1
