Question

y/5+2=-8

Answer 1

-50

Answer 2

You'd want only the y left on the left side, so first you'll minus both sides with 2:

y/5 + 2 - 2 = -8 -2
y/5 = -10

Then you'll multiple both sides with 5.

y/5 * 5 = -10 * 5
y = -50

Answer 3

You subtract 2 from left side and do the same to right side so you have
y/5=-10
then you multiply by 5
