S O L U T I O N :-


\implies \sf{ - 35 = 2y + 5(y + 7)} \\ \\


\implies\sf{ - 35 =2y + 5y + 35} \\ \\


\implies \sf- 35 - 35 = 2y + 5y \\ \\


\implies\sf- 70 = 7y \\ \\


\implies \sf y = \cancel{ ( - 70)/(7)} \\ \\


\implies \underline{\boxed{\bf {y = - 10}}}


\huge {\therefore} The value of y is -10.
