6=-4+5y subtract 4 from both sides of the equation
2 = 5y divide both sides by 5
2/5 = y
this is a bit easier
5 + 2u = -1
subtract 5 on both sides
2u = -6
divide 2 on both sides
u = -6/2
divide
u = -3
Guest, you were soooo close!!!!
so..... let me explain
6 = -4 + 5y
add for on both sides
10 = 5y
divide 5 on both sides
10/5 = y
divide
2 = y
Yep....close.....I didn't see the negative sign hiding in there...should go find my glasses !
Hey there, PD6200!
So, I'll walk you step-by-step through this.
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
\(6=5y−4\)
Step 2: Flip the equation.
\(5y−4=6\)
Step 3: Add 4 to both sides.
\(5y−4+4=6+4\)
\(5y=10\)
Step 4: Divide both sides by 5.
\(\frac{5y}{5}\)\(=\frac{10}{5}\)
\(y=2\)
And there you have it, 2 is your answer.
Hope this helped! :)
