Question 606396
Solve for y:
{{{y-4y+3 = -30}}} Perform the indicated subtraction on the left side.
{{{-3y+3 = -30}}} Now Subtract 3 from both sides.
{{{-3y = -33}}} Finally, divide both sides by -3.
{{{y = 11}}}
Note! You cannot add 4y+3 to get 7y, why not? because the two terms are not alike. It's sorta like trying to add $4 + 3 pesos! I can't be done!
