Respuesta :
Divide both sides by -3
y + 5 = -15/3
Simplify 15/3 to 5
y + 5 = -5
Subtract 5 from both sides
y = -5 - 5
Simplify -5 - 5 to -10
y = -10
Answer: y=-10 and -10=y. *The answer should be the negative sign.*
Step-by-step explanation:
distributive property: a(b+c)=ab+ac
divide by -3 both sides of an equation.
-3(y+5)/-3=15/-3
simplify.
y+5=-5
subtract by 5 both sides of an equation.
y+5-5=-5-5
simplify by equation.
5+5=10
y=-10
Hope this helps!
Thanks!
Have a great day!
