Question

3y + 1 = y - 5 solve it

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

3y + -1 = y + 5

Reorder the terms:

-1 + 3y = y + 5

Reorder the terms:

-1 + 3y = 5 + y

Solving

-1 + 3y = 5 + y

Solving for variable 'y'.

Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-1y' to each side of the equation.

-1 + 3y + -1y = 5 + y + -1y

Combine like terms: 3y + -1y = 2y

-1 + 2y = 5 + y + -1y

Combine like terms: y + -1y = 0

-1 + 2y = 5 + 0

-1 + 2y = 5

Add '1' to each side of the equation.

-1 + 1 + 2y = 5 + 1

Combine like terms: -1 + 1 = 0

0 + 2y = 5 + 1

2y = 5 + 1

Combine like terms: 5 + 1 = 6

2y = 6

Divide each side by '2'.

y = 3

Simplifying

y = 3

Answer 2

Answer:

=> 3y + 1 = y - 5

=> 3y - y = - 5 -1

=> 2y = -6

=> y = -6/2

=> y = -3

hope it helps..
