Question

Solve: (3y - 8)/(5y - 6) = 7/8​

Answer 1

Answer:

y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

(3y - 8)/(5y - 6) = 7/8

by cross multiplying, we get,

7(5y - 6) = 8(3y - 8)

35y - 42 = 24y - 64

35y - 24y = -64+42

11y = -22

y = -22/11

y = -2

Answer 2

Ans.-

= 8 (3y-8 )= 7(5y-6)

= 24y-64 = 35y-42

= 24y-35y = -42+64

= -11y = 22

= y = 22/-11

= y = -2
