Question

Find y in y + 41 = -59 - y

Answer 1

Answer:

y = -50

Step-by-step explanation:

y + 41 = -59 - y

y + 41 + y = -59 - y + y (Adding y to both sides)

2y + 41 = -59

2y +41- 41 = 59 - 41 (subtracting 41 from both sides)

2y = -51 - 49

2y= -100

y = -100/2

y = - 50

Answer 2

Answer:  50

Step-by-step explanation:

y+41= -59 - y

y+y= -59-41

2y= -100

y= -100/2

y=50
