Question

Find the value of y in the equation 6(y+4) = 12

Group of answer choices
y = 2
y = -2
y = 8
y = 6

Answer 1

Y= -2

Explanation:

6(-2+4)=12

6x2=12

Answer 2

The answer is y= -2. When following order of operations you would divide by 6 on both sides which leaves the equation to be y+4=2 and then you subtract by 4 on both sides. This leave you with y= -2.
