First what you wanna do is get y by it’s self. To do that is to first add 5 on each side.
-5+3y=-4
+5 +5
3y= 1
Than you divide 3 on each side and it would give you y=1/3 if it’s a fractions problem but if you looking for decimals you would have to divide 1 by 3 which gets you .33333333.
The average of 17 and 15 is 16 because if you add 17 and 15 together, and you divide them by 2, you get 16.
Answer:
2(5x - 1) – (2x - 5)
=2(5x−1)−2x+5
=10x−2−2x+5
=(10x−2x)+(−2+5)
=8x+3
