Answer:

Explanation:

-3x - 5 = 16

add 5 to both sides of the equation

-3x = 21

divide both sides by -3

x = -7

---------------------

-4(y - 2) = 12

distribute the -4 to everything in the parentheses

-4y + 8 = 12

subtract 8 from both sides of the equation

-4y = 4

divide both sides of the equation by -4

y = -1
