Simplifying
3y = 36 + 9y
Solving
3y = 36 + 9y
Solving for variable 'y'.
Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-9y' to each side of the equation.
3y + -9y = 36 + 9y + -9y
Combine like terms: 3y + -9y = -6y
-6y = 36 + 9y + -9y
Combine like terms: 9y + -9y = 0
-6y = 36 + 0
-6y = 36
Divide each side by '-6'.
y = -6
Simplifying
y = -6
OpenStudy (anonymous):
The answer is Y= -6

-3y -3y
36 = 6y
÷6 ÷6
6 = y
