Question

8(7-y)=-24

Answer 1

If you do the distribution property, then: 56 - 8y=-24 -> -8y =-24-56 -> -8y = -80 -> y= -80/-8 -> y= 10

Answer 2

y=10

Answer 3

8(7-y)=-24
56-8y=-24
add 56 to both sides....
the divide by 8

Answer 4

8(7-y) = -24
Distribute 56 - 8y = -24
Add 56 to each side -8y = 32
divide by -8 y = -4

Answer 5

56-8y=-24
add 56 both side
-8y=32
divide by -8
y=-4
