Question

compute a value for y that satisfies the equation below
-3y-12=-4

Answer 1

Add 12 both the sides first..

Answer 2

add 12 on both sides.
then divide by -3 on both sides.

Answer 3

-3y-12+12=-4+12
-3y=8
-3y/-3=8/-3
y=-(8/3)

Answer 4

add 12 to the both sides
-3y-12+12=-4+12
-3y=8
divide both sides by -3
y=-8/3
