Question

24= 8 + 2 (y - 10)

step by step pls

Answer 1

18

Explanation:

24 = 8 + 2 (y-10)

24-8 = 8 + 2 (y-10) -8

16 = 2 (y-10)

16 = 2y - 20

16 + 20 = 2y -20 + 20

36 = 2y

36/2 = 2y/2

18 = y

Answer 2

18

Explanation:

Distribute the 2 to the terms inside the parenthesis.

24=8+2y-20

Combine like terms

24=2y-12

Add 12 to 24

36=2y

Divide by 2

18=y
