Question

Solve for y.
5y+3y=32
Simplify your answer as much as possible
y = 0

Answer 1

To solve the equation 5y + 3y = 32, we can combine the like terms on the left side of the equation:

5y + 3y = 32

8y = 32

Next, we can isolate y by dividing both sides of the equation by 8:

(8y)/8 = 32/8

y = 4

Thus, the simplified solution for y is y = 4.
