Question

y/-6+5=9 . solve for y

Answer 1

First you would take the -6 and the 5 which would equal to -1, this gives you y/-1 then you multiple the -1 over the the 9, which gives you y=-9. I believe.

Answer 2

First what you do is move that 5 over, giving you -y/6=4
Now just multiply everything by -6 and that will get y by itself

Answer 3

Is this your equation?
\[\frac{y}{-6}+5=9\]

Answer 4

yes @Ness9630

Answer 5

I thought the whole thing was under the y.

Answer 6

Then follow my steps

Answer 7

So you are left with:
\[-\frac{y}{6}=5\]
Just multiply by -6

Answer 8

wouldnt it be -24?

Answer 9

Oh, excuse me that should be a 4, not a 5. And yes, it would be -24
Good job!
