    Answer: y = - 1

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Add 5 to both sides,

    y-5+5=-9y-15+5

    Simplify,

    y=-9y-10

    Add 9y to both sides,

    y+9y=-9y-10+9y

    Simplify,

    10y=-10

    Divide both sides by ten.

    10y over 10 = - 10 over 10

    There you go!

    Answer: - 1

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Y-5=3-9 (y+2)

    Open the bracket first.

    9 (y+2)

    9y-18.

    Y-5=3-9y-18

    Collect like terms

    Y+9y=3-18+5

    10y=-10

    Divide both sides by 10

    Y = - 10/10

    Y = - 1
