Answer:

y = -1

Explanation:

5(2y−1)−2(2−y)+3(2y+9)=0

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

5(2y−1)−2(2−y)+3(2y+9)=0

(5)(2y)+(5)(−1)+(−2)(2)+(−2)(−y)+(3)(2y)+(3)(9)=0(Distribute)

10y+−5+−4+2y+6y+27=0

(10y+2y+6y)+(−5+−4+27)=0(Combine Like Terms)

18y+18=0

18y+18=0

Step 2: Subtract 18 from both sides.

18y+18−18=0−18

18y=−18

Step 3: Divide both sides by 18.

18y/18 = -18/18

Answer: y=−1
