2(-8)-8=4y

2 (- 8) - 8 = 4 y

y = - 6

Solution steps

2 (- 8) - 8 = 4 y

Switch sides

4 y = 2 (- 8) - 8

Remove parentheses:

(- a) = - a

4 y = - 2 \cdot 8 - 8

Multiply the numbers:

2 \cdot 8 = 16

4 y = - 16 - 8

Subtract the numbers:

- 16 - 8 = - 24

4 y = - 24

Divide both sides by

4

y = - 6

\frac{x - 7}{2} = 5

3 (4 x - 3) = 5 (5 - x)

\frac{12 x - 5}{3} = x + 10

- 0.002 x + 2.7 = 0

5 x + 4 = 12
