Answer: How to solve equations
Explanation:
You have to use Pemdas the order of operations to solve these types of equations.
Parenthesis,Exponents,multiplication,Division,Addition,subtraction.
Multiplication and division fit in a group left to right.
Addition and subtraction come last but depends on which comes first left to right.
Here you first have to use the distributive property.
3(y+5)=39 multiply 3 times y that gives you 3y. Then multiply 3 times 5 that gives you 15 . So, now you have simplified the left side of the equal sign so you have 3y+15=39 now subtract 15 from both sides and you get 3y=24 then you divide both sides by 3 to get y=8. What I just went over you do again and again to solve all these types of equations. Your trying to solve for the variable so you try to get y or m or n or any variable by itself.
