\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "For 6y + 7 = 5 - y you want to group like terms then calculate as follows:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "6y + y + 7 -5 = 0\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "7y + 2 = 0 \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "7y = -2\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Divide both sides by 7 to get y = -2/7\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "You can also write it as \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "6y + 7 = 5 - y ---> 6y + y = 5 - 7 \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "7y = -2\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "y = -2/7\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Either way you will get the same answer :)\r
