Answer:

y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

9/4y - 12 = 1/4y - 4

Step 2: Solve for y

Subtract 1/4y on both sides: 8/4y - 12 = -4
Simplify: 2y - 12 = -4
Add 12 to both sides: 2y = 8
Divide both sides by 2: y = 4

Step 3: Check

Plug in x to verify it's a solution.

9/4(4) - 12 = 1/4(4) - 4

9 - 12 = 1 - 4

-3 = -3
