Question

What is the value of y in the equation 4(y-6) = - 4 ? REMEMBER TO DISTRIBUTE! *

Answer 1

Answer:

y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

4 (y - 6) = -4

  ×4 ×4               Distribute 4 with y and 6

4y - 24 = -4

    +24    +24      Add 24 to both sides of the equation

4y = 20

÷4    ÷4               Divide each side by 4

y = 5

Answer 2

Answer:

y=5

Step-by-step explanation:

4(y-6)=-4

4 x y   4 x 6

 4y - 24 = -4

 4y +24 = -4 +24

4y = 20

4y/4 = 20/4

y=5
