3y-8=8 ?? help me

zepdrix (zepdrix):

\[\huge 3y-8=8\]We'll add 8 to both sides,\[\huge 3y-8\color{cornflowerblue}{+8}=8 \color{cornflowerblue}{+8}\]Which simplifies to,\[\huge 3y=16\]Understand the first step ok? :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3y = 8 + 8 3y = 16 y = 16/3 y = 5.33

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3y = 8+8 3y = 16 y = 16/3 y = 5.33

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3y = 8+8 3y = 16 y = 16/3 y = 5.33

Keep in mind that 5.33 is a rounded answer; the exact answer is 16/3.
