Answer 2

D.

Explanation:

The first step is to subtract 2 on both sides, so

3(y - 5) + 2 - 2 = 5 - 2

3(y - 5) = 3

Next, multiply by or distribute the 3 on the left side.

3y - 15 = 3

Then, add 15 on both sides.

3y - 15 + 15 = 3 + 15

3y = 18

Finally, divide by 3 on both sides.

3y/3 = 18/3

y = 6
