Question

4y = 2 (y - 5) - 2 what is the answer? plz answer you will get 26 points.

Answer 1

Answer:

$y=-6$

Step-by-step explanation:

$4y=2(y-5)-2$

Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by -5:-

• $4x=2y-10-2$

Subtract 2 from -10 to get -12:-

• $4y=2y-12$

Subtract 2y from both sides:-

• $4y-2=-12$

Divide both sides by 2:-

• $y=-6$

Answer 2

Answer:

y = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

4y = 2 (y - 5) - 2

Distribute

4y = 2y-10-2

Combine like terms

4y = 2y-12

Subtract 2y from each side

4y-2y =2y-12-2y

2y =-12

Divide by 2

2y/2 = -12/2

y = -6
