You can put this solution on YOUR website! Solve for the unknown in the equation below
In the third term of this equation, we are multiplying by 2 and dividing by 2. Thus we can cancel them out.
Now we should move all of our 'y' variables to one side. By adding (y/2) and (y-3) to both sides we will have
We now can break up the parentheses as we've simplified them as far as we can. After this will we add 3 to both sides, this way we only have terms involving 'y' on the right.
->
After doing this it leaves us with:
By doing this we can combine terms by adding fractions with common denominators. This will give us:
simplifying we get:
From here we solve for y by multiplying by two then diving by three.
