Question

5(y-6)=3(y-4)
whats the answer with steps

Answer 1

5 (y - 6) = 3 (y - 4) :First, distribute on both sides.

5y - 30 = 3y - 12 :Then, add the 30 over to the 12.
+30 +30

5y = 3y + 18 :Next, subtract the 3y over to the 5y.
-3y -3y

(2y = 18) ÷ 2 :Then, divide the whole equation by 2

Your final answer is:
y = 9

Answer 2

5 (y-6) = 3 (y-4)
5y - 30 = 3y - 12
2y -30 = -12
2y = 18
y = 9
