Question

Solve for x, 12y+6=6(y+1)

Answer 1

For this case we must solve the following equation:

$12y + 6 = 6 (y + 1)$

We apply distributive property on the right side of the equation:

$12y + 6 = 6y + 6$

We subtract 6y on both sides of the equation:

$12y-6y + 6 = 6\\6y + 6 = 6$

We subtract 6 from both sides of the equation:

$6y = 6-6\\6y = 0$

Dividing by 6 on both sides of the equation:

$y = 0$

So, the result is $y = 0$

Answer:

$y = 0$
