Question

Solve for 3+y/2=-212

Answer 1

You have the following equation:

`3+(y)/(2)=-212`

In order to solve the previous equation for y, proceed as follow:

3 + y/2 = -212 subtract 3 both sides

y/2 = -212 - 3 simplify right side

y/2 = -215 multiply by 2 both sides to cancel the denominator left side

y = -215(2)

y = -430

Hence, the solution for y in the given equation is y = -430
