Answer:


4(y + 8) = 100 \\ 4y + 32 = 100 \\ 4y = 100 - 32 \\ 4y = 68 \\ y = (68)/(4) \\ \boxed{y = 17}

y=17 is the right answer.

Answer:

y=17

Step-by-step explanation:4(y+8)=100

We move all terms to the left:

4(y+8)-(100)=0

We multiply parentheses

4y+32-100=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

4y-68=0

We move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right

4y=68

y=68/4

y=17
