Answer 1

y=2

Answer 2

thanks

Answer 3

Solve for y:
5 y-9 = 1
Isolate terms with y to the left hand side.
Add 9 to both sides:
5 y+(9-9) = 1+9
Look for two terms that sum to zero.
9-9 = 0:
5 y = 1+9
Evaluate 1+9.
1+9 = 10:
5 y = 10
Divide both sides by a constant to simplify the equation.
Divide both sides of 5 y = 10 by 5:
(5 y)/5 = 10/5
Any nonzero number divided by itself is one.
5/5 = 1:
y = 10/5
Reduce 10/5 to lowest terms. Start by finding the GCD of 10 and 5.
The gcd of 10 and 5 is 5, so 10/5 = (5×2)/(5×1) = 5/5×2 = 2:
