The first step to solving this is to multiply both sides of the equation by 3
8 + 10y = 9y - 12
now move the variable to the left side and change its sign
8 + 10y - 9y = -12
move the constant to the right side and change its sign
10y - 9y = -12 - 8
collect the like terms for y
y = -12 - 8 (it equals 1 when you subtract 10 from 9 which is the same is simply saying "y")
calculate the difference on the other side of the equals sign
y = -20
this means that the correct answer to your question is -20.

Answer:
2x - 3y = -14
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
angle 1 and angle 3 are congruent
Step-by-step explanation:
Angles supplementary to the same angle are congruent. Here both angles 1 and 3 are supplementary to angle 2, so angles 1 and 3 are congruent.
_____
If you like, you can get there algebraically:
m∠1 + m∠2 = 180
m∠3 + m∠2 = 180
Subtract the second equation from the first:
(m∠1 + m∠2) - (m∠3 + m∠2) = (180) - (180)
m∠1 -m∠3 = 0 . . . . simplify
m∠1 = m∠3 . . . . . . add m∠3
When angle measures are the same, the angles are congruent.
∠1 ≅ ∠3
