Answer: y=4

Explanation:

The expression we have is:

[tex]17=5y-3[/tex]

to solve for y we do the following steps.

Step 1: Add 3 on both sides of the equation

[tex]17+3=5y-3+3[/tex]

Solving the operations we get:

[tex]20=5y[/tex]

Step 2: Divide both sides of the equation by 5

[tex]\frac{20}{5}=\frac{5y}{5}[/tex]

Doing the divisions we get:

[tex]4=y[/tex]
