Question

3(y – 5) + 2 = 5 solve

Answer 1

\[3(y-5)+2=5\]\[3y-15+2=5\]\[3y-13=5\]\[3y=18\]\[y=6\]

Answer 2

Wait, where did you get 3+2=5 from?

Answer 3

3(y-5)+2=5
first solve what's enclosed , thats 3(y-5) ... gives us 3y-15,
now bring all the numbers on one side of the equation,
so we have 3y-15+2=5
3y=5+15-2
3y=18
y=6
