Answer 1

Answer:

A= the solution is 27

Step-by-step explanation:

3y+4(y−6)=8y−3(y−10)

3y+4(y−6)=8y−3(y−10) - Simplify

3y+(4)(y)+(4)(−6)=8y+(−3)(y)+(−3)(−10)(Distribute) - Simplify

3y+4y+−24=8y+−3y+30 - Simplify

(3y+4y)+(−24)=(8y+−3y)+(30)(Combine Like Terms)

7y+−24=5y+30

7y−24=5y+30

7y−24−5y=5y+30−5y - Subtract 5y from both sides

2y−24=30

2y−24+24=30+24 - Add 24 to both sides

2y=54

2y/2 = 54/2 - Divide both sides by 2

y=27
