Answer 1

5

2y

40

Explanation:

Answer 2

y = 5

Because [2y] is on both sides of the equation, 8y must be equal to [40] so that the equation is true.

Explanation:

Combine like terms to find the value of y.

8y + 2y = 2y + 40

10y = 2y + 40

8y = 40

y = 5

As we can see, we ended with 8y = 40, and 2y is the only term on both sides of the equation.
