Question

What is the solution to the open sentence?  4y – 3 = y + 6   A. 1   B. 2   C. 3   D. 9

Answer 1

4y - 3 = y + 6 
Add 3 to both sides
4y = y + 9
Subtract y from both sides
3y = 9
Divide both sides by 3
y= 3

Answer 2

Answer:

Option A - 1  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Expression $4y-3=y+6$

To find : What is the solution to the open sentence?

Solution :

Step 1 - Write the expression,

$4y-3=y+6$

Step 2 - Take like terms together,

$4y-y=6-3$

Step 3 - Solve the addition and subtraction,

$3y=3$

Step 4 - Divide by 3 both side,

$\frac{3y}{3}=\frac{3}{3}$

$y=1$

Therefore, Option A is correct.
