Question

Solve the equation. y + 6 = –3y + 26

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3y+y = 26-6

4y = 20

4y/4 = 20/4

y = 5

Answer 2

Answer:

y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

y + 6 = –3y + 26

Add 3y to each side

y+3y + 6 = –3y+3y + 26

4y +6 = 26

Subtract 6 from each side

4y+6-6 = 26-6

4y = 20

Divide by 4

4y/4 = 20/4

y = 5
