Question

6*-2=7-4y


slove for y

Answer 1

What does 6*-2 simplify to

Answer 2

-12

Answer 3

now you must move that 7 on the right side over, so how do you do this?

Answer 4

-12+7=7+7-4y right?

Answer 5

not adding, but subtracting

Answer 6

oh ok so ....?????

Answer 7

notice on the right side if you add 7 to both sides, you get 7+7 = 14

but we want 7 - 7 = 0 (so the 7 on the right side effectively goes away)

Answer 8

OOOOOHHHHHHHH

Answer 9

so you subtract 7 from both sides to get


-12 = 7-4y


-12-7 = 7-4y-7


-12-7 = 7-7-4y


-19 = 0-4y


-19 = -4y

Answer 10

What's next?

Answer 11

mmmmmm -19/4=-4y/4

Answer 12

good, that will give you

-19/4 = -y

flip the equation to get

-y = -19/4

then change the signs of both sides to get this final answer

y = 19/4

Answer 13

4.75
