answer:
y = -7.5

Step-by-step explanation:


-140 = 18+4 (5y-2) | distribute the 4 into the parentheses


-140 = 18 + 20y - 8 | add 18 and -8, because their like terms


-140 = 10 + 20y | add -10 and move it over to -140


-150 = 20y | divide by 20


-7.5 = y | final answer


hope this helps! ❤from peachimin
