Question

-3(y+3)=2y+3 what does y equal?

Answer 1

[ Answer ]

Y = -12 / 5

[ Explanation ]

Expand:

-3y - 9 = 2y + 3

Add 9 to both sides:

-3y - 9 + 9 = 2y + 3 - 9

Simplify:

-3y = 2y + 12

Subtract 2y from both sides:

-3y - 2y = 2y + 12 - 2y

Simplify:

-5y = 12

Divide both sides by -5:

-5y / -5 = 12 / -5

Simplify:

Y = -12 / 5
