4y-9%2By%2B33=5y%2B30-3y Start with the given equation.


5y%2B24=5y%2B30-3y Combine like terms on the left side.


5y%2B24=2y%2B30 Combine like terms on the right side.


5y=2y%2B30-24 Subtract 24 from both sides.


5y-2y=30-24 Subtract 2y from both sides.


3y=30-24 Combine like terms on the left side.


3y=6 Combine like terms on the right side.


y=6%2F3 Divide both sides by 3 to isolate y.


y=2 Reduce.
