Question

Solve this equation: 4y + 228 = 352.
A. y = 31
B. y = – 31
C. y = 145
D. y = 3

Answer 1

A. y=31
First you subtract 228 from 352 and then divide by 4

Answer 2

$4y + 228 = 352\\\\4y +228 -228 = 352-228\\\\4y = 352 -228\\\\4y = 124\\\\\frac{4y}{4} =\frac{124}{4}\\\\y =\frac{124}{4}\\\\\\\boxed{\bf{y=31}}$

Your final answer is A. y = 31.
