Answer:

y=8000

Explanation:

Distribute 0.07 in the numbers inside the parenthesis

So 0.19y + 0.07y + 490 = 2570

add both like terms:

0.26y + 490 = 2570

subtract both sides by 490:

0.26y + 490 -490 = 2570 -490

0.26y = 2080

then divide both sides by 0.26:

0.26y / 0.26 = 2080 / 0.26

y = 8000
