Question

If 8y - 8=24 find the value of 2y ​

Answer 1

Answer:

2y =8

Step-by-step explanation:

$8y - 8 = 24$

First let's find the value of y

Collect like terms and simplify ;

$8y = 24 + 8 \\ 8y = 32$

Divide both sides of the equation by 8

$\frac{8y}{8} = \frac{32}{8}$

Simplify

$y = 4$

Substitute 4 for y into 2y

$2y \\ = 2(4) \\ = 4 \times 2 = 8$
