Hello!

Explanation: Addition property of equality is adding the same number to both sides of an equation does not change the equation.

a+c=b+c

First, add by 23 both sides of an equation.

y-23+23=-5+23

And then, simplify.

23-5=18

It changes negative to positive sign.*

Final answer is y=18

Hope this helps!

Thanks!

Have a great day!

Hey there!

Answer = 18(y = 18)

Explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

y - 23 = -5

Add 23 to both sides:

y - 23 + 23 = -5 + 23

y = 18

So therefore, that is how you found your answer: y = 18
