Question 913735
Solve the equation:

5y - 10 = -9 - 4y

New to these sort of problems. Thanks for your time.

Add 4y to each side of the equation.

5y - 10 + 4y = -9 - 4y + 4y

9y - 10 = -9

Add 10 to each side of the equation.

9y - 10 + 10 = -9 + 10

9y = 1

Divide each side by 9.

9y/9 = 1/9



Answer:

y = 1/9
