Question

solve the equation (4y-8=24)​

Answer 1

Answer:

y= 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

4y + 8 = 24

Reorder the terms:

8 + 4y = 24

Solving

8 + 4y = 24

Solving for variable 'y'.

Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-8' to each side of the equation.

8 + -8 + 4y = 24 + -8

Combine like terms: 8 + -8 = 0

0 + 4y = 24 + -8

4y = 24 + -8

Combine like terms: 24 + -8 = 16

4y = 16

Divide each side by '4'.

y = 4

Simplifying

y = 4

Answer 2

Explanation:

4y - 8 = 24

4y - 8 + 8 = 24 + 8

Simplify:

Add the numbers

4y = 32

Divide Both Sides:

4y = 32

4y/4 = 32/4

Solution:

y = 8
