12 + 3(2y – 3), I got 15.. is that right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

12 + 3(2y – 3) what do you want? is this question complete?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm guessing she's solving for Y and setting it equal to 0 if so, then no it's not 15

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I just need to solve the whole problem.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

12 + 3(2y – 3), is it set to equal something like 12 + 3(2y – 3) =0?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well, are you simplifying it, or solving for y?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Simplifying it:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

distribute the 3 in 3(2y – 3)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but dont i multiply the 3 by the 2.. since the (3) is not (3y)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

12 + 3(2y – 3) |dw:1352131924584:dw|
