How do you solve - 6=-3y+4=5y

-2 • (y + 2)

add the - 6 to all parts of the equation to leave you with:

-3y + 10 = 5y + 6

then you will add - 3y, again, to all parts of the equation leaving you with:

8y + 6 = 10

subtract 6 from both sides:

8y = 4

divide each side by 8:

your final answer should be

y = 1/2 or 0.5
