Given equation:

-9(2y - 3) = 18

In order to solve begin by distributing -9

-18y + 27 = 18

Subtract 27 from both sides.

-18y = 18 - 27

Simplify.

-18y = -9

Remove the minus from both sides.

18y = 9

Divide both sides by 18.

y = 9/18

And, finally, reduce your answer.

y = 1/2

Therefore, our answer is y = 1/2.
