1) -5y - 9 = - (y - 1)

2) solve the parenthesis of the right side

-5y - 9 = - y + 1

3) add 5y to both sides

5y - 5y - 9 = -y + 5y + 1

- 9 = 4y + 1

4) Subtract 1 from both sides

-9 - 1 = 4y + 1 - 1

-10 = 4y

5) Divide both sides by 4

-10 / 4 = 4y/4

- 2.5 = y

Answer: y = - 2.5

2/3 + w = 3/2 what is w
german

Answer:

0.8333

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 + x

x + 2/3

x + 2/3 = 3/2

x + 2/3 - 3/2 = 0

2/3 - 3/2 = 4/6 - 9/6 = - 5/6

x - 5/6 = 0

use linear function

f(x) - ax + b

f(x) = x - 5/6

a = 1

b = - 5/6

x- 5/6= 0

x = 5/6

x = 0.8333
