7y +8= 9+3y+2y
Combine like terms.
7y+8= 9+5y
Subtract 5y on both sides.
2y+8=9
Subtract 8 on both sides.
2y=1
Your answer is 2y=1
I hope this helps!

1 + (-5/8) = 3/8
Explanation: If the coffee wasn’t drank it would’ve been at fraction 1 (or 100%)
Since he drank 5/8 of it. The coffee left is now 1-(5/8)
But since the question has asked to give the equation in addition format. Put a plus sign in between the two.
Therefore,
1 + (-5/8)
Solve it,
= 1-(5/8)
= (8-5)/8
= 3/8
Hence the equation is:
1 + (-5/8) = 3/8.
Since 2 croissants = $3 we can work out that 1 croissant = $1.50
Multiply $1.50 by 31 and we get $46.50
Therefore 31 croissants is $46.50
I think you’re right because I put the same thing on my quiz
