Question

What is the answer to this math problem: -6y+19=1+5+7y

Answer 1

$- 6y + 19 = 1 + 5 + 7y$
Ok so first, let's combine the like terms on the right side by adding them
$1 + 5 + 7y \\ = 6 + 7y$
Now we look at them put back together
$- 6y + 19 = 6 + 7y$
Now you have to move all your y's to one side and numbers without a variable to the other. So, for this we're going to add 6y to 7y on the right so the left side cancels out.
$19 = 6 + 13y$
On the other side we subtract 6 from 19
$13 = 13y \\ 13y = 13$
and now to get the answer for y we divide 13 by 13 to get your answer of 1 :)
$y = 1$
