Answer:
y = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
⇒ 17 y + 2 = 5 y + 74
→ ( - 5 y from both sides )
⇒ 12 y + 2 = 74
→ ( -2 from both sides )
⇒ 12 y = 72
( ÷ by 12 on both sides )
⇒ y = 6
Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :
17*y+2-(5*y+74)=0
Pull out like factors :
12y - 72 = 12 • (y - 6)
Solve : 12 = 0
Add 6 to both sides of the equation :
