\huge \boxed{\mathfrak{Question} \downarrow}


  • \tt \: 2 - \frac { 1 } { 8 } y = 11 + \frac { 7 } { 8 } y \\


\large \boxed{\mathfrak{Answer \: with \: Explanation} \downarrow}


\tt \: 2 - \frac { 1 } { 8 } y = 11 + \frac { 7 } { 8 } y \\

Subtract
\tt(7)/(8)y from both sides.


\tt \: 2-(1)/(8)y-(7)/(8)y=11 \\

Combine
\tt-(1)/(8)y and
\tt-(7)/(8)y to get -y.


\tt \: 2-y=11

Subtract 2 from both sides.


\tt \: -y=11-2

Subtract 2 from 11 to get 9.


\tt \: -y=9

Multiply both sides by -1.


\boxed{\boxed{ \bf \: y=-9 }}

Answer:


y=-9

Explanation:


2-(1)/(8)y=11+(7)/(8)y

Subtract 2 from both sides:-


2-(1)/(8)y-2=11+(7)/(8)y-2


-(1)/(8)y=(7)/(8)y+9

Subtract 7/8y from both sides:-


-(1)/(8)y-(7)/(8)y=(7)/(8)y+9-(7)/(8)y


-y=9

Divide both sides by -1:-


(-y)/(-1)=(9)/(-1)


y=-9
