8y-10=-3y%2B2 Start with the given equation.


8y=-3y%2B2%2B10 Add 10 to both sides.


8y%2B3y=2%2B10 Add 3y to both sides.


11y=2%2B10 Combine like terms on the left side.


11y=12 Combine like terms on the right side.


y=%2812%29%2F%2811%29 Divide both sides by 11 to isolate y.

Answer:

So the solution is y=12%2F11
