Answer 1

To solve for y, we can start by isolating the variable on one side of the equation. Adding 10 to both sides of the equation, we get:

5y - 10 + 10 = -25 + 10
5y = -15

Next, we can divide both sides of the equation by 5 to solve for y:

5y/5 = -15/5
y = -3

Therefore, the solution for y is -3.
