Question

Can’t solve this problem

48-44y=128

Answer 1

Explanation:

-44y = 128 - 48

-44y = 80

y = -80/44

y= -20/11

Answer 2

y = -20//11 or as a mixed number -1 9/11.

Explanation:

48-44y=128

Subtract 48 from both sides;

-44y = 128 - 48

-44y = 80

Divide both sides by -11:

y = 80 / -44

= 20/-11

= -20/11.
