Question 55197
Solve for y:
{{{3(y-2)+y(1+2) = 4}}}  Applying the distributive property to the left side.
{{{3y-6+y+2y = 4}}} Collecting like-terms.
{{{6y-6 = 4}}} Now add 6 to both sides of the equation.
{{{6y = 10}}} Finally, divide both sides by 6.
{{{y = 10/6}}} or {{{y = 5/3}}}
{{{y = 1.66}}} Approximately.
