Question

What is 3y + 20 = 3 + 2y

Answer 1

Explanation:

This is a simple linear equation.

From the equation, separate and collect the terms either to the left or right side of the equation.

3y + 20 = 3 + 2y.

3y - 2y = 3 - 20

y = -17.

Answer 2

y= -17

Explanation:

3y + 20 = 3 + 2y

3y -2y+ 20 = 3 + 2y-2y (subtracting 2y from both sides)

y + 20 = 3

y=3-20

y=-17
