Answer 16

since its an expression theres not a real answer, so to solve an expression you have to simplify it, combine all of your like terms

Ex. 2y + 4 + 4y + 8

you would combine your like terms, 2y + 4y which would equal 6y and then you combine the other like terms 4 + 8 which equals 12 so the simplified version of this expression is

6y + 12

since there is no equal sign, you cant solve for y

so 6y + 12 would be your answer
