Solve for y.

y − 9.49 = 3.51

1 answer

To solve for \( y \) in the equation \( y - 9.49 = 3.51 \), you need to isolate \( y \).

  1. Add 9.49 to both sides of the equation:

\[ y - 9.49 + 9.49 = 3.51 + 9.49 \]

  1. This simplifies to:

\[ y = 3.51 + 9.49 \]

  1. Now, perform the addition:

\[ y = 13.00 \]

Therefore, the solution is:

\[ y = 13.00 \]
