Answer:
y = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
-7 = -4y + 5
Subtract 5 from both sides to isolate variable y:
-7 - 5 = -4y + 5 - 5
-12 = -4y + 0
-12 = -4y
Divide both sides by -4 to isolate variable y:
-12 ÷ -4 = -4y ÷ -4
(Negative ÷ Negative = Positive)
3 = 1y
3 = y
Check your work:
-7 = -4(3) + 5
Use PEMDAS:
-7 = -12 + 5
-7 = -7
