Answer:
y = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
So to find the value of y that makes the equation true we have to calculate the value of y.
3y - 5y - (2y - 6) = 8y - 2(9y - 6)
First we have distribute;
3y - 5y - 2y + 6 = 8y - 18y + 12
Collect like terms next;
-4y + 6 = -10y + 12
Add 10y to both sides
6y + 6 = 12
Subtract 6 from both sides
6y = 6
Divide both sides by 6
y = 1
