Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define equation

0.74y = 128

Step 2: Solve for y

  1. Divide both sides by 0.74:                    y = 172.973

Step 3: Check

Plug in y into the original equation to verify it is a solution.

  1. Substitute in y:                   0.74(172.973) = 128
  2. Multiply:                              128 = 128

Here we see that 128 does indeed equal 128.

∴ y = 172.973 is a solution of the equation.
