how do you solve these problems

1. 3y+5y/3= 8

2.m + 5 = m-3

3.3z/2 - 17/3 = 2z/3 - 3/2

4. -3a + 9 = 3a - 9

4 answers

first one ...
multiply each term by 3 to get
9y + 5y = 24
14y = 24
y = 24/14 = 12/7

second ..
no solution

third ... multiply each term by 6 to get
9z - 34 = 4z - 9
easy from there

4th ....
give it a shot, it is so easy.
# 1 is wrong

and is # 4 no solution?
i cant get # 4!
#4,
-3a + 9 = 3a - 9
-6a = -18
a = -18/-6
a = 3

#1
I had y = 12/7

check:
Left Side
= 3(12/7) + 5(12/7) / 3
= 36/7 + 60/21
= 36/7 + 20/7
= 56/7 = 8
= right side

My answer is correct.
Did you type the equation correctly?
