Answer 4

ok thanks.... i'm confused about the answer :|

Answer 5

y+6 is just a number

In this case, we're taking some unknown number 'y' and adding it to 6 to get some other number.


But, we know that 'y' is the number 2. So we can replace 'y' with 2 to go from y+6 to 2+6. Now add 2 and 6 to get 8


So 2+6 = 8


This means that y+6 = 8 when y=2

Answer 6

OOOOH!!!! Thank you so much!!!

Answer 7

Remember, y is just a number (an unknown number, but a number nonetheless), so y+6 is just a number (again unknown, but still a number)
