Question

Identify the value of y (3y+5)=-4-8y+9+77

Answer 1

Answer:

Y=7

Step-by-step explanation:

(3y+5)= -4 -8y +9 + 77

     -5    -5            

    3y= -9 - 8y + 9 + 77

           +9          -9

    3y=  -8y + 77

    +8y    +8y

      11y = 77

      11y/11    77/11

        y = 7

1. subtract 5 from both sides

2. add -9 and +9 and you get 0

3. add 8y to both sides

4. divide both sides by 11

5. you get y=7
