Answer: y=1

Explanation:

problem: 6=2(y+2)

step 1: divide both sides by 2

3=y+2

step 2: subtract 2 from both sides

1=y there's the answer :)

Steps for solving

· Distribute the 2 through the parentheses on the right side of the equation

· 2(y) is 2y and 2(2) is 4

· So the problem now reads 6 = 2y + 4

· Subtract 4 from both sides to isolate the 2y

· So we have 2 = 2y

· Divide both sides by 2 and 1 = y

My work is also shown in the image attached.
