Vocaloid:
distribute on both sides, let me know what you get
hopesanddreams3453:
10*1 - 10*2y= -5* 2y- -5*1
Vocaloid:
good, keep simplifying
hopesanddreams3453:
10-20y= -10y- -6
10-6= -20y -10y
4/-10= 10/10
y-0.4
hopesanddreams3453:

Vocaloid:
10*1 - 10*2y= -5* 2y- -5*1
10 - 20y = -10y + 5
Vocaloid:
not sure where you got 6 from
Vocaloid:
also, please write - - as + every time you see it
Vocaloid:
so now we have:
10 - 20y = -10y + 5
add 20y to both sides
hopesanddreams3453:
10= -10y= 30y +5
