DETAILED EXPLANATION


Look at highlight_red%28+6+%29%2By-highlight_red%28+5+%29=-2.
Added fractions or integers together
It becomes highlight_green%28+1+%29%2By=-2.

Look at highlight_red%28+1+%29%2By=-2.
Moved 1 to the right of expression
It becomes y%2Bhighlight_green%28+1+%29=-2.

Look at y%2B1=highlight_red%28+-2+%29.
Moved these terms to the left highlight_green%28+2+%29
It becomes y%2B1%2Bhighlight_green%28+2+%29=0.

Look at y%2Bhighlight_red%28+1+%29%2Bhighlight_red%28+2+%29=0.
Added fractions or integers together
It becomes y%2Bhighlight_green%28+3+%29=0.

Look at highlight_red%28+y%2B3+%29=0.
Solved linear equation highlight_red%28+y%2B3=0+%29 equivalent to y+3 =0
It becomes highlight_green%28+0+%29=0.
Result: 0=0
This is an equation! Solutions: y=-3.
