Answer:

[tex]y=1/6[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the equation:

[tex]6y-5=-3(2y+1)[/tex]

First, distribute the right side:

[tex]6y-5=-6y-3[/tex]

Add 6y to both sides. The right cancels:

[tex]12y-5=-3[/tex]

Add 5 to both sides. The left cancels:

[tex]12y=2[/tex]

Divide both sides by 12:

[tex]y=2/12[/tex]

Reduce:

[tex]y=1/6[/tex]

And we're done!

Steps to solve:

6y – 5 = –3(2y + 1)

~Distribute left side

6y - 5 = -6y - 3

~Add 5 to both sides

6y = -6y + 2

~Add 6y to both sides

12y = 2

~Divide 12 to both sides

y = 1/6

Best of Luck!
