Answer:
y = 13.
Step-by-step explanation:
3/2(y-1) = y+5
3/2y - 3/2 = y + 5
3/2y - y = 5 + 3/2
1/2y = 6 and 1/2; 6.5; 13/2
y = 13.
To check out work...
3/2(13 - 1) = 13 + 5
3/2(12) = 18
3 * 6 = 18
18 = 18
On a number line, all you need to do is plot a point where it says 13. On a cartesian plane, you would have a horizontal line that expands infinitely in each direction, where y = 13.
Hope this helps!
