To solve for y, we need to isolate y on one side of the equation.
Starting with the equation:
y/2 + 22 = 28
To get rid of the "+22" term on the left side, we can subtract 22 from both sides of the equation:
y/2 + 22 - 22 = 28 - 22
Simplifying, we have:
y/2 = 6
Next, we want to get rid of the "/2" term on the left side. To do this, we can multiply both sides of the equation by 2:
2 * (y/2) = 6 * 2
Multiplying, we have:
y = 12
Therefore, the solution to the equation is y = 12.
Solve using inverse operations. y/2+22=28

are you sure?
I apologize for the confusion. Let's solve the equation again using inverse operations.
y/2 + 22 = 28
Subtract 22 from both sides:
y/2 + 22 - 22 = 28 - 22
y/2 = 6
To eliminate the division by 2, we multiply both sides by 2:
2 * (y/2) = 6 * 2
The 2 on the left side cancels out:
y = 12
Therefore, the solution to the equation y/2 + 22 = 28 is y = 12.
y/2 + 22 = 28
Subtract 22 from both sides:
y/2 + 22 - 22 = 28 - 22
y/2 = 6
To eliminate the division by 2, we multiply both sides by 2:
2 * (y/2) = 6 * 2
The 2 on the left side cancels out:
y = 12
Therefore, the solution to the equation y/2 + 22 = 28 is y = 12.
