Question

Solve: 5-3(5y+2)=4(7-3y)+1

Answer 1

-10

Explanation:

5-15y-6=28-12y+1

Combining similar terms

5-6-28-1= -12y+15y

-30= 3y

Dividing both sides by 3

-10=y

OR

y=-10

Answer 2

Explanation:

5-3(5y+2)=4(7-3y)+1

5 - 3*5y - 3*2 = 4*7 - 4*3y + 1

5 - 15y - 6 = 28 - 12y + 1

-1 - 15y = 29 - 12y

-15y + 12y = 29 + 1

-3y = 30

y = 30/ - 3

y = -10
