Question

54x + 15 = -3 (3y + 1)
I need help finding the equation for y

Answer 1

Answer______

54x + 15 = -3 (3y + 1)

54x + 15 = -9y -3

+3 +3

54x + 18 = -9y

y = -6x - 2

Answer 2

Answer: y = -6x - 2

Explanation:

54x + 15 = -3(3y + 1) To solve for y distribute on the right side to get,

54x + 15 = -9y -3 Add 3 to both sides

+3 +3

54x + 18 = -9y Divide each term by -9 on each side.

y = -6x - 2
