Question

Solve for y -5y+8=-3y+10 what is the answer

Answer 1

-5y + 8 = -3y + 10
We need to get y on one side.
Add 3y to both sides.
-2y + 8 = 10
We need to get 2y by itself.
Subtract 8 from both sides.
-2y = 2
Divide both sides by -2 to solve for y.
y = -1

I hope this helps!

Answer 2

Move like terms to each side and simplify.
$-5y+8=-3y+10 \\ -3y+5y=8-10 \\ 2y=-2 \\ y=-1$
