{{{9y-4-6y=2y+2-5}}} Distribute.



{{{3y-4=2y+2-5}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{3y-4=2y-3}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{3y=2y-3+4}}} Add {{{4}}} to both sides.



{{{3y-2y=-3+4}}} Subtract {{{2y}}} from both sides.



{{{y=-3+4}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{y=1}}} Combine like terms on the right side.
