Hello!

Judging by the question you have provided I have figured that the best way to go about finding the solution is by using the distributive property!

This means you will want to distribute the y = -3 into the 2y+7-4y-10 equation.

However, the first step you should take is to simplify the equations.
After simplifying the equations you should come out with the new equation being -2y-3.

You now want to distribute the y=-3 into the equation!
You should get -2(-3)-3. Now solve!

The answer you get should be 3!

Hope this helped!
