Question

Find the solution of the equation 2 + 3(y - 2) = 23 ​

Answer 1

Answer:

On simplifying the given equation, we get y = -19/3

Step-by-step explanation:

2 + 3y - 6 = 23

3y + 23 - 6 + 2 = 0

3y + 19 = 0

so, y = -19/3

Answer 2

Answer:

$\huge{ \boxed{ \text y = 9}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sf{2 + 3(y - 2) = 23}$

➝$\sf{2 + 3y - 6 = 23}$

$➝ \: \sf{ - 4 + 3y = 23}$

➝$\sf{3y = 23 + 4}$

➝$\sf{3y = 27}$

➝$\sf{y = \frac{27}{3} }$

➝$\sf{y = 9}$

Hope I helped!
