2 + y/6 = -5.68

1 answer

To solve the equation 2 + y/6 = -5.68 for y, you need to isolate y on one side of the equation. To do this, you can manipulate the equation by subtracting 2 from both sides:

2 + y/6 - 2 = -5.68 - 2
y/6 = -7.68

Next, multiply both sides of the equation by 6 to eliminate the fraction:

(y/6) * 6 = (-7.68) * 6
y = -46.08

Therefore, the solution to the equation is y = -46.08.
