8(7-y)=-24\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "56-8y = -24\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now remember whatever you do to one side, you must do to the other.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "56 - 8y -56 = -24 - 56
\n" ); document.write( "56-56 -8y = -80
\n" ); document.write( "0-8y = -80
\n" ); document.write( "-8y = -80
\n" ); document.write( "-8y/-8 = -80/-8
\n" ); document.write( "-8/-8 * y = 10
\n" ); document.write( "1* y = 01
\n" ); document.write( "y=10\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Substitute this value back into the original equation to make sure it is correct.
