Answer:

2(4-y)-3(y+3)=-11

We move all terms to the left:

2(4-y)-3(y+3)-(-11)=0

We add all the numbers together, and al

2(-1y+4)-3(y+3)-(-11)=0

We add all the numbers together, and al

2(-1y+4)-3(y+3)+11=0

We multiply parentheses

-2y-3y+8-9+11=0

We add all the numbers together, and al

-5y+10=0

We move all terms containing y to the 1

-5y=-10

y=-10/-5

y=+2
