Answer:
What we want is the answer on one side, and the variable on the other.
The first step in solving this is to get rid of the +1.
To do this we can use the inverse of operations, so we would subtract 1 from both sides.
7y +1 (-1) is 7y, ans 43-1 is 42.
Your problem now looks like
7y = 42
Next, we want to divide. We will divide both sides by 7
7y/7 is y, and 42/7 is 6.
Now our problem looks like
y = 6
6 is the answer
Hope it helps!
