3y+[-5y-(y+3)]=8y-(5y-9)

3 y + [- 5 y - (y + 3)] = 8 y - (5 y - 9)

y = - 2

Solution steps

3 y + [- 5 y - (y + 3)] = 8 y - (5 y - 9)

Remove parentheses:

(- a) = - a

3 y - 5 y - (y + 3) = 8 y - (5 y - 9)

Add similar elements:

3 y - 5 y = - 2 y

- 2 y - (y + 3) = 8 y - (5 y - 9)

Expand

- 2 y - (y + 3) : - 3 y - 3

Expand

8 y - (5 y - 9) : 3 y + 9

- 3 y - 3 = 3 y + 9

Move

3

to the right side

- 3 y = 3 y + 12

Move

3 y

to the left side

- 6 y = 12

Divide both sides by

- 6

y = - 2

10 - 6 x = - 15 - 11 x

- (a - 9) = 3 a + 17

7 r - 4 = 2 r + 16

x, 4 - 2 z = 3 x + 2

10 x - 3 (x - 6) = x + 30
