Question

5(y+2)= -3
Help please TvT

Answer 1

-2.6

Explanation:

Given: 5(y+2)= -3

Do the parentheses (Multiply 5 by Y and 2): 5y+10=-3

Simplify (subtract 10 from both sides): 5y=-13

Simplify again (divide both sides by 5): y=-2.6

Double-Check:

Given (replace -2.6 for Y): 5(-2.6+2)=-3

Do the parentheses (Add-2.6 and 2): 5(-0.6)=-3

Simplify (Multiply 5 by -0.6): -3=-3 ✔️

The answer checks out.
