Question

Solve the equation 7y - 5 = 2y + 10

Answer 1

Answer: y=3

Step-by-step explanation:

7y-5=2y+10

subtract 2y from both sides

5y-5=10

now add 5 to both sides

5y=15

now divide both sides by 5 to get y alone

y=3

Answer 2

y = 3

Explanation:

7y - 5 = 2y + 10 ( subtract 2y from both sides )

5y - 5 = 10 ( add 5 to both sides )

5y = 15 ( divide both sides by 5 )

y = 3
