Answer:

y = 156

Explanation:

Solve for y:

y - 52 4 + 52 = 0

Multiply -52 and 4 together.

-52×4 = -208:

y + -208 + 52 = 0

Group like terms in y - 208 + 52.

Grouping like terms, y - 208 + 52 = y + (-208 + 52):

y + (-208 + 52) = 0

Evaluate 52 - 208.

52 - 208 = -156:

y + -156 = 0

Isolate terms with y to the left-hand side.

Add 156 to both sides:

y + (156 - 156) = 156

Hint: | Look for the difference of two identical terms.

156 - 156 = 0:

Answer: y = 156
