Answer:

(C) y = -3

Explanation:

Isolate the variable, y. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.

First, add 10 to both sides:

5y - 10 = -25

5y - 10 (+10) = -25 (+10)

5y = -25 + 10

5y = -15

Divide 5 from both sides:

(5y)/5 = (-15)/5

y = -15/5

y = -3

C) y = -3 is your answer.
