Question

Solve for y and show steps 75-3.5y-4y=4y+6

Answer 1

Solve for y;

`\begin{gathered} 75-3.5y-4y=4y+6 \\ \text{Collect like terms, which means the values with y would be moved to one side} \\ \text{And the values without y would be moved to the other side} \\ 75-6=4y+4y+3.5y \\ \text{Note that when a positive value moves to the other side of the equation} \\ It\text{ becomes a negative value, and vice versa} \\ 69=11.5y \\ \text{Divide both sides by 11.5} \\ (69)/(11.5)=(11.5y)/(11.5) \\ 6=y \end{gathered}`

The answer is y equals 6
