Question

Is -2y + 4 = 8y - 6 a one solution

Answer 1

one solution , y = 1

Explanation:

given the equation

- 2y + 4 = 8y - 6 ( subtract 8y from both sides )

- 2y - 8y + 4 = 8y - 8y - 6 ( simplify both sides )

- 10y + 4 = - 6 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

- 10y + 4 - 4 = - 6 - 4 ( simplify both sides )

- 10y = - 10 ( divide both sides by - 10 )

`(-10)/(-10)` y =
`(-10)/(-10)` , that is

y = 1

Answer 2

There is one solution y=1

Explanation:

Is -2y + 4 = 8y - 6 a one solution

Add 2y to each side

-2y+2y + 4 = 8y - 6+2y

4 = 10y - 6

Add 6 to each side

10=10y

Divide each side

10/10 = 10y/10

1 = y

There is one solution y=1
