Question 627922
{{{-9y-12(2-3y)=-25-2(y+6)}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{-9y-24+36y=-25-2y-12}}} Distribute.



{{{27y-24=-25-2y-12}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{27y-24=-2y-37}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{27y=-2y-37+24}}} Add {{{24}}} to both sides.



{{{27y+2y=-37+24}}} Add {{{2y}}} to both sides.



{{{29y=-37+24}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{29y=-13}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{y=(-13)/(29)}}} Divide both sides by {{{29}}} to isolate {{{y}}}.

Answer:


So the solution is {{{y=-13/29}}}
