please show me how to do this equation as I have lots of these to do and I don't understand, thanks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3y + 6 = y -2 ------------- 3y + 6 = y -2 -y -y ------------- 2y + 6 = -2 ----------- 2y + 6 =-2 -6 -6 ----------- 2y = -8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2y = -8 divide both sides by 2 y = -4
