Question

Solve.
4(y + 4) = 32

Answer 1

Answer: y=4

Explanation:

4(y+4)=32

Divide both sides by 4

y+4=8

Subtract 4 from both sides

y=4

Answer 2

y = 4

Explanation:

4*y = 4y

4*4 = 16

4y+16=32

to get 4y alone, we subtract 16 from 32.

32-16 = 16

4y = 16

to get y alone, we divide 4 by 16

16/ 4 = 4

so, y = 4
