Question

solve the following

8y+4=2y+10
​

Answer 1

Answer:

8y+4=2y+10

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying 8y + -4 = 2y + -10

Reorder the terms: -4 + 8y = 2y + -10

Reorder the terms: -4 + 8y = -10 + 2y

Solving -4 + 8y = -10 + 2y

Solving for variable 'y'.

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

Add '-2y' to each side of the equation.

-4 + 8y + -2y = -10 + 2y + -2y

Combine like terms: 8y + -2y = 6y

-4 + 6y = -10 + 2y + -2y

Combine like terms: 2y + -2y = 0

-4 + 6y = -10 + 0 -4 + 6y = -10

Add '4' to each side of the equation.

-4 + 4 + 6y = -10 + 4

Combine like terms:

-4 + 4 = 0 0 + 6y = -10 + 4 6y = -10 + 4

Combine like terms: -10 + 4 = -6 6y = -6

Divide each side by '6'. y = -1

Simplifying y = -1

Answer 2

$y = \frac{5}{4}$
