It can be seen that y = 16/11.

How to solve

Solving the equation for y:

Step 1: Combine like terms

-5y + 7/2y = -5 - 3/2y - 4

Combine y terms on the left side:

-11/2y = -5 - 4

Combine constants on the right side:

-11/2y = -9

Step 2: Multiply both sides by -2/11

(-2/11) * (-11/2y) = (-2/11) * (-9)

y = 16/11

Therefore, y = 16/11.
