Question

What is the solution to the open sentence? 4y – 3 = y + 6

Answer 1

Get your y's to one side
\[4y-3=y+6\]
subtract y frome the right because we don't like negative numbers

Answer 2

\[3y-3=6\]
now move the minus 3 to the right (still don't like negative numbers)

Answer 3

\[3y=9\](because you had to add the 3 to cancel it out on the left)

Answer 4

And now simply divide by 3
