Answer:
y=8.25
Explanation:
1, combine like terms. In this case you will be able to combine 18y and and 6y to get 24y.
your equation now should be 24y-18=180.
2, cross products. Since -18 and 180 and like terms you will be able to combine them. because -18 is on the opposite side of the equal sign from 180 you will do the opposite of what the equation says and add 18.
you should now have 24y=198.
We can still solve the equation further so you will continue the last step by dividing 24y by 24 instead of mulyiplying to get y. you will also divide 198 by 24 to get 8.25.
That step will give you your answer, y=8.25
