Answer:
2.5
Explanation:
Simplifying
2y + -1.7 = 3.3
Reorder the terms:
-1.7 + 2y = 3.3
Solving
-1.7 + 2y = 3.3
Solving for variable 'y'.
Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '1.7' to each side of the equation.
-1.7 + 1.7 + 2y = 3.3 + 1.7
Combine like terms: -1.7 + 1.7 = 0.0
0.0 + 2y = 3.3 + 1.7
2y = 3.3 + 1.7
Combine like terms: 3.3 + 1.7 = 5
2y = 5
Divide each side by '2'.
y = 2.5
Simplifying
y = 2.5
