Answer:
y = 104/3
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve the equation, we need to isolate the variable "y" on one side.
First, we can add 3/4y to both sides to get rid of the -3/4y on the left side:
13 - 3/4y + 3/4y = -13 + 3/4y
13 = -13 + 3/4y
Next, we can simplify -13 + 3/4y on the right side:
13 = -13 + 3/4y
13 + 13 = -13 + 13 + 3/4y
26 = 3/4y
To solve for y, we need to divide both sides by 3/4:
(4/3) * 26 = (3/4y)*(4/3)
(4 * 26) / 3 = y
Now, we can simplify the left side:
104/3 = y
Therefore, the solution to the equation is y = 104/3 or y = 34.67 (rounded to two decimal places).
