There are 12 such shapes. One can start with two squares, adding squares around the edge and rejecting shapes that have been previously seen. Repeating until you have 5 squares results in 12 distinct shapes.
_____
2 shapes are possible with 3 squares: L, I
5 shapes are possible with 4 squares: L, I, N, T, O
First you distribute what’s outside the parentheses (the -4)
-4•4= -4y
-4•-2= 8
New equation: -4y+8=12
Now you solve like a normal equation
12-8 is 4
New equation: -4y=4
Now divide
