Answer:

y= 90

Explanation:

64−( 3y+8y+y 40 )=37 64+ −3 10 y=37 −3 10 y+64=37

Step 2: Subtract 64 from both sides.

−3 10 y+64−64=37−64 −3 10 y=−27

Step 3: Multiply both sides by 10/(-3).

( 10 −3 )*( −3 10 y)=( 10 −3 )*(−27) y=90

Answer:

y= 90

Explanation:

64−(3y+8y+y)÷40=37

Combine terms in the parentheses

64−(12y)÷40=37

Subtract 64 from each side

64-64−(12y)÷40=37-64

-(12y)÷40=-27

Multiply each side by 40

-(12y)÷40*40=-27*40

-12y =-1080

Divide each side by -12

-12y/-12 = -1080/-12

y =90
