Question 701336
{{{3(y-2)+(y+1)=3}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{3y-6+y+1=3}}} Distribute.



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



{{{4y=3+5}}} Add {{{5}}} to both sides.



{{{4y=8}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{y=(8)/(4)}}} Divide both sides by {{{4}}} to isolate {{{y}}}.



{{{y=2}}} Reduce.

Answer:


So the solution is {{{y=2}}}
