Answer 2

Answer:

$y=8$

Step-by-Step Explanation:

$5y-2=3y+14$

$5y-3y=14+2$

$2y = 16$

$y=16\div2$

$y=8$

Verification:

LHS $= 5y-2$

$=5$ × $8-2$

$=40-2$

$=38$

RHS $=3y+14$

$=3$ × $8+14$

$=24+14$

$=38$

LHS = RHS hence, verified.

When we move a number to the other side,

+ becomes -

- becomes +

× becomes ÷

÷ becomes ×
