Answer:

y = 34

Explanation:

PEMDAS =

Parenthesis

Exponents (& Roots)

Multiplication

Division

Addition

Subtraction

Remember to follow PEMDAS. First, multiply -6 with 4:

-6 * 4 = -24

-24 + y = 10

Isolate the variable, y. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS. Add 24 to both sides:

-24 (+24) + y = 10 (+24)

y = 10 + 24

y = 34

y = 34 is your answer.
