Question

Solve the linear equation: 7y
- = 2 (4y + 2)
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Given,

     $7y = 2(4y+2)$

     $7y = 8y + 4$

     $7y - 8y = 4$

     $-y = 4$$y = -4$

      Hope it helps you^_^

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute

7y =2(4y+2)

7y=(8y +4)

subtract 8y from both sides

7y-8y= 8y +4y-8y

combine like terms

-y=8y+4-8y

-y = 4

-y /-1=4/-1

y=4/-1

y =-4
