what is 3y-4=14

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

14-4=10 10/3=10.33...

Why don't you try one by yourself, and we can tell you if you are right or wrong, @buckley?

OpenStudy (debbieg):

that is wrong. @calculusxy. Please don't give answers, especially wrong ones.

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

Ok so does y=6?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes.

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation : 3*y-4-(14)=0 Solve : 3y - 18 = 0 Step by step solution : Step 1 : Pulling out like terms : # 01.01 Pull out like factors: 3y - 18 = 3•(y - 6) Equation at the end of step 1 : 3 • (y - 6) = 0 Step 2 : Solve 3•(y-6) = 0 # 02.01 Solve 3 = 0 This equation has no solution(s). A a non-zero constant never equals zero. Solving a Single Variable Equation : # 02.02 Solve : y-6 = 0 Add 6 to both sides of the equation: y = 6 One solution was found : y =6

Or.... just add 4, then divide by 3.
