Answer:

y = 8

Explanation:

Given equation: Зу - 15 = y + 1

Subtract "y" both sides:

  • → Зу - 15 = y + 1
  • → 3y - y - 15 = y - y + 1
  • → 2y - 15 = 1

Add 15 both sides:

  • → 2y - 15 = 1
  • → 2y - 15 + 15 = 1 + 15
  • → 2y = 16

Divide 2 both sides:

  • → 2y/2 = 16/2
  • y = 8

Answer:

y=8

Solution:

  • First, move the y's to the left:
  • 3y-y-15=1
  • Now, add 15 to both sides:
  • 3y-y=1+15
  • Combine Like Terms:
  • 2y=16
  • Divide both sides by 2:
  • y=8

Hope it helps.
