Hi
2/3 y+y-4=31
Simplify both sides of the equation
2/3 y-4=31
Combine like terms
(2/3 y+y)+(-4)=31
5/3 y-4=31
Add 4 to both sides
5/3 y-4+4=31+4
5/3 y=35
Multiply both sides 3/5
(3/5)*(5/3 y)=(3/5)*35
y=21
I hope that's help !

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Adding the same number to both sides of the equation is an acceptable move. The addition property of equality tells Grace that the value of the variable will remain unchanged by such a move.
Her new equation would be ...
2x +20 +10 = 15 +10
2x +30 = 25 . . . . the result of Grace's move
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
There may be very good reasons why Grace would want to do that. If solving the equation is Grace's intent, that move would be counterproductive. For the purpose of solving the equation, it would be more productive to either subtract 20 from both sides, or divide both sides by 2. These steps would give, respectively, ...
2x = -5
x +10 = 7.5
There are 64 people in the room.
Since the ratio for women increases 1 when 8 women enter the room, for every time there is 1 in the ratio there are 8 people. That means that originally you have to do 3x8 and 4x8. You get 24 and 32 which equals 56. Then when 8 more women enter the room, you get 64.
