Solve for y.

Question

-4(y-4)=-6y+20
Simplify your answer as much as possible.

Answer 1

-4(y-4)=-6y+20
-4y+16=-6y+20
2y=-4
y=-2

Answer 2

Solve for x.
-3x+41=8(x+1)
Simplify your answer as much as possible.

Answer 3

-3x+41=8(x+1)
-3x+41=8x+8
-11x=-33
x=3

Answer 4

Solve for y.
6(y+1)=-2y+38
Simplify your answer as much as possible.

Answer 5

6(y+1)=-2y+38

Distribute on the left side: 6y + 6 = -2y + 38

Combine like terms: 6y + 2y = 38 - 6
8y = 32

Divide by 8:
y = 4

Answer 6

Solve for w.
-8w-40=2(w+4)
Simplify your answer as much as possible.

Answer 7

-8w-40=2(w+4)

Distribute on the right side: -8w - 40 = 2w + 8

Combine like terms: -8w - 2w = 8 + 40
-10w = 48

Divide by -10:
w = -4.8

Answer 8

that's wrong
