Question

Solve: y+1/2 – 2y-1/3 = 4

Answer 1

Answer:

y=-23/6

Step-by-step explanation:

in the equation, you would need to first subtract y and -2y which equals -y=> (this would be on the left side of the equation)

then, subtract -1/2 on both sides of equation and put that in the right side of the equation.

add 1/3 on both sides of equation and put that in the right side of equation as well.

now, you have this equation: -y=4-1/2+1/3

you have to make all the fractions have the same denominator by multiplying which results for 4 to be 24/6, -1/2 to be -3/6, and 1/3 to be 2/6

your resulting equation would be -y=24/6-3/6+2/6

and when you solve the right side of the equation by subtracting and adding, you get 23/6

now, the equation would be -y=23/6

finally, you just have to divide -1 on both sides of the equation and you would get y=-23/6 as your final solution.

I hope that helps :)
