Question

-35=2y+5(y+7) what is y

Answer 1

S O L U T I O N :-

$\implies \sf{ - 35 = 2y + 5(y + 7)}$

$\implies\sf{ - 35 =2y + 5y + 35}$

$\implies \sf- 35 - 35 = 2y + 5y$

$\implies\sf- 70 = 7y$

$\implies \sf y = \cancel{ \dfrac{ - 70}{7}}$

$\implies \underline{\boxed{\bf {y = - 10}}}$

$\huge {\therefore}$ The value of y is -10.
