Question

How to solve 4y+12=6y+12​

Answer 1

0 = y

Explanation:

Subtract 12 from both sides, leaving 4y = 6y

Subtract 4y from both sides leaving 0 = 6y - 4y

Solve: 0 = 2y

Divide both sides by 2 and since 0 can't be divided it stays 0, leaving 0 = y

Answer 2

y = 0

Explanation:

Given

4y + 12 = 6y + 12 ( subtract 6y from both sides )

- 2y + 12 = 12 ( subtract 12 from both sides )

- 2y = 0, hence

y = 0
