Question

Which set of steps shows the solution to the equation 2y = −8? (5 points)

a
y = −8 − 2; y = 6

b
y = −8 ÷ (−2); y = 4

c
y = −8 ÷ 2; y = −4

d
y = −8 − (−2); y = −6

Answer 1

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

given,

2y = -8

when 2 goes to the. other side of the equals to it acts as divisor

so,

y = -8÷2

i.e,

y = -4
