What is the value of y in the equation 3y - 8 = 22?

2 answers:

8 0

So first you move eight to the other side as a positive number
3y=22+8
3y=30
We divide both sides by 3
So y equals to ten

Hey there!

In order to find out the answer to this question, we can distribute

$-30 = 2(x - 97) \\ \\ \\ 2(x) = 2x \\ \\ 2(97) = 197$

Flip your problem around!

$2x - 194 = -30$

Add by $194$ on each of your sides

Like: $2x - 194 + 194 \\ \\ \\ -30 + 194$

Cancel out: $-194 + 194$ because they would give you the outcome of $0$

Keep: $-30 + 194 [/tex] because that'll give you: [tex]164$

Your problem becomes: $2x = 164$

Now, we have to divide by $2$ on each of the sides

Like: $\frac{2x}{2} = \frac{164}{2}$

Cancel: $\frac{2x}{2}$ because it will give you a outcome of $1$

Keep: $\frac{164}{2}$ because this will give you your answer

$Answer: x = 82$

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
