Question

If 5y + 18 = 11 - 2y then y =

Answer 1

Answer:

5y+18=11-2y

5y+2y=11-18

7y=-7

y=-1

Answer 2

• We have to evaluate the above expression by using the given data.

              Given data:- $5y+18=11-2y.$

              To find:- Value of the expression.

              Solution:-

• Here we will use the transposition method.

• Transposition is one of the linear equations.

• To solve the transposition method we will Identify the variables and constants.

• Then we Simplify the equation in LHS and RHS.

• Now Simplify the equation using arithmetic operations.

        By using the transposition method.

        we get,

          $=>5y+18=11-2y\\=>5y+18-18=-2y+11-18 \\=>5y=-2y+11-18\\=>5y=-2y-7\\=>5y+2y=-7\\=>7y=-7\\=>y=\frac{7}{-7} \\=>y=-1$

       Hence we will get the value $y=-1.$
