Question

(SOLVE! BEST ANSWER GETS MEDAL! SHOW WORK!) [(y + 1)/4] - [(y - 1)/6] = y + 5

Answer 1

Simplify brackets
y+14−y−16=y+5

2
Multiply both sides by 12 (the LCM of 4,6)
3(y+1)−2(y−1)=12y+60

3
Expand
3y+3−2y+2=12y+60

4
Simplify 3y+3−2y+2 to 3y−2y+5
3y−2y+5=12y+60

5
Simplify 3y−2y+5 to y+5
y+5=12y+60

6
Subtract y from both sides
5=12y+60−y

7
Simplify 12y+60−y to 11y+60
5=11y+60

8
Subtract 60 from both sides
5−60=11y

9
Simplify 5−60 to −55
−55=11y

10
Divide both sides by 11
−5511=y

11
Simplify 5511 to 5
−5=y

12
Switch sides
y=−5

Answer 2

DANG IT!! Sorry

Answer 3

Lol what are all the question marks? xD

Answer 4

Idk

Answer 5

Simplify brackets
y+14−y−16=y+5

2
Multiply both sides by 12 (the LCM of 4,6)
3(y+1)−2(y−1)=12y+60

3
Expand
3y+3−2y+2=12y+60

4
Simplify 3y+3−2y+2 to 3y−2y+5
3y−2y+5=12y+60

5
Simplify 3y−2y+5 to y+5
y+5=12y+60

6
Subtract y from both sides
5=12y+60−y

7
Simplify 12y+60−y to 11y+60
5=11y+60

8
Subtract 60 from both sides
5−60=11y

9
Simplify 5−60 to −55
−55=11y

10
Divide both sides by 11
−5511=y

11
Simplify 5511 to 5
−5=y

12
Switch sides
y=−5


There we go!!
