Question

OK anyone can you help me with this problem

Answer 1

To solve for y, isolate y.
Subtract \(\large \frac 13 y \) from both sides and solve for y.

Answer 2

ok so i got 7=-7/30y so then i would what multiply both sides by the reciprocal?

Answer 3

Correct.
Divide both sides by 7
Multiply both sides by 30 to get rid of the 30 in the denominator.
Multiply both sides by -1.

Answer 4

ok so i got -30

Answer 5

Correct. y = -30.

If you want you can put y = -30 in the equation and verify it is indeed correct.
