Question

If 8y - 8=24 find the value of 2y ​

Answer 1

2y =8

Explanation:

`8y - 8 = 24`

First let's find the value of y

Collect like terms and simplify ;

`8y = 24 + 8 \\ 8y = 32`

Divide both sides of the equation by 8

`(8y)/(8) = (32)/(8)`

Simplify

`y = 4`

Substitute 4 for y into 2y

`2y \\ = 2(4) \\ = 4 * 2 = 8`
