Question

3y + 2/5 = -1/5 what is y?

Answer 1

Answer:

y = - $\frac{1}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

3y + $\frac{2}{5}$ = - $\frac{1}{5}$

Multiply through by 5 to clear the fractions

15y + 2 = - 1 ( subtract 2 from both sides )

15y = - 3 ( divide both sides by 15 )

y = - $\frac{3}{15}$ = - $\frac{1}{5}$
