Answer:
no solution
Step-by-step explanation:
5x - 8(x + 5) = 6 - 3x
Remember to follow PEMDAS. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other.
First, distribute -8 to all terms within the parenthesis
-8(x + 5) = (-8)(x) + (-8)(5) = -8x - 40
5x - 8x - 40 = 6 - 3x
Isolate the variable (x). Add 3x & 40 to both sides
5x - 8x (+3x) - 40 (+40) = 6 (+40) - 3x (+3x)
5x - 8x + 3x = 6 + 40
Simplify. Combine like terms
(5x - 8x + 3x) = (6 + 40)
0 = 46 ; False 0 ≠ 46 ∴ no solution is your answer

Answer:
y = 27
Step-by-step explanation:
y/3 + 2 = 11
First subtract 2 from each side
y/3 + 2-2 = 11-2
y/3 = 9
Then multiply each side by 3
y/3 *3 = 9*3
y = 27
