Question

`\mathrm{-5-(15y-1)=2(7y-16)-y}`

Answer 1

y = 1

Explanation:

-5- (15y - 1) = 2(7y - 16) -y

-15y -4 = 13y - 32

-28y = -28

-28y/-28 = -28/-28

y = 1

Answer 2

`\sf \: y = 1`

Explanation:

Given equation,

→ -5 - (15y - 1) = 2(7y - 16) - y

Now the value of y will be,

→ -5 - (15y - 1) = 2(7y - 16) - y

→ -5 - 15y + 1 = 14y - 32 - y

→ -15y - 4 = 13y - 32

→ -15y - 13y = -32 + 4

→ -28y = -28

→ y = -28 ÷ -28

→ [ y = 1 ]

Hence, the value of y is 1.
