HELP
Solve y – 18 = –3.

Answer 1

y=15

Explanation:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

y-18-(-3)=0

y-15 = 0

Add 15 to both sides of the equation :

y = 15

Answer 2

y = 15

Add 18 to both sides to cancel out the negative next to the y
