Answer:
y = 16
Explanation:
Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :
4*(8+y)-(96)=0
4 • (y + 8) - 96 = 0
Pull out like factors :
4y - 64 = 4 • (y - 16)
4 • (y - 16) = 0
Solve : 4 = 0
This equation has no solution.
A non-zero constant never equals zero.
Solve : y - 16 = 0
Add 16 to both sides of the equation :
y = 16
