Question

Can you solve -3(y-5)=24

Answer 1

-3(y-5)=24
Distribute the -3 with the equation in the parentheses
-3y+15=24
Then take away the 15 from itself and 15 away from 24
-3y=9
Then you divide 9 by -3 which is -3.
y=-3

Answer 2

Answer:y=-3

Step-by-step explanation:yes firs multiply everything by -3 in parenthesies

Then you would subtract 15 from both sides

Next you would divide 9 by -3 and you would get -3

So y =-3
